As we celebrate the birth of Christ we remember how it started with a baby in the manger and ended up with a man on a cross. Our cross on the school property this morning reminds us of the ultimate sacrifice and the best gift ever given.
These kiddos are just waiting for snow!

This year at GCS we started a program to reward good behavior. You receive a "star ticket" with your name if you "get caught in the act". That could be for holding the door, picking up trash, helping a friend, helping their teacher, repeating a bible verse, etc. Six names will be drawn out once a month and you are able to pick a prize. Those names then go into a drawing for the end of the year, for the Grand Prize. Each child that earns a star ticket will also get a star (K-4) or a flag (5-8). When their jar is full in their classroom they will receive a class prize.
Wardrobe a little blah? We can help with that! Our new t-shirts will be available at the Harvest Festival this Saturday for $15.00. Get them before they're gone!
Our Preschool and Kindergarten classes had a great trip to the Grant Ashland Fire Station today! They loved seeing all the gear that Firefighters wear and checking out the trucks! They learned all about fire safety!
