As we begin planning for the upcoming school year, it’s important for us to have accurate enrollment information. If your child will not be returning to our school next year, please let us know as soon as possible.

Kindly email our school secretary, Mrs. Pedrotty, at pedrottya@gjps.org to inform us of your plans.

Thank you for your help as we prepare for a successful year ahead!

For the safety of our students and staff, we are making an important change to our morning arrival procedures. From 7:45–8:05 a.m., no vehicles will be permitted to enter the main parking lot from Schillingwood Dr. or Helmbright Dr. unless you have a valid handicap tag or a pass issued by Lincoln.

All other families should use the car loop. If you arrive and find the car loop doors locked, please continue through the loop, park in the main lot, and walk your child into the building to sign them in.

Thank you for helping us keep all students safe!

All 3rd, 4th and 5th graders will take part in the OST this year. Please see the schedule below and try not to make any appointments or schedule vacations during these dates. Please reach out to your child's teacher, if you have any questions.
