Gorrie
Walk-A-Thon November 13th
When: Friday,
November 13, 2015, 8:00am-10:15am
Where:
Gorrie Elementary
What:
A Walk-a-thon to raise funds for our school. The event will take place at
school, during regular school hours. Please come and cheer on our amazing
students and teachers as they walk the perimeter of our school.
Why:
This event benefits Gorrie Elementary School by providing funds for resources
such as teacher training, events, technology and facility improvements, class
programs and many other items to continuously improve the learning experience
for our children.
This year, the funds being
raised will be used to support our teachers through classroom grants for
continuing education workshops and seminars, science projects, writing aids,
and supplemental materials not provided by the county that our teachers believe
will make a difference in learning in our classrooms. A portion of the funds
will also supplement the art and music department, ongoing maintenance, repair
and replacement of visual aid equipment in every classroom, and our Gorrie
Cares service projects which allows our students to give back to the community.

End of the year sign up!
- We are off to a great start for this school year. This year will fly by with all of the fun activities and academic contentwe have in store for your children. We have tons planned for this year, but we can't do this alone. We need your help. Instead of having one parent be the overall 5th grade parent leader, we are dividing out the responsibilities and we are looking for some parents to chair the end of the year activities. Please take a moment to review the activities and consider giving your time and help. We would greatly appreciate it. Below, you will find a link to sign up for end of the year activities for our 5th grade students! For each activity, there is a teacher coordinator that you can reach out to for questions/ details of the events. Thanks in advance!!
Open House
You are invited to attend an Open House presentation, this Thursday, Sept. 17 in the 5th Grade Pod, Room 524(Mr. Catania and Ms. Fadden's room). This year we will be hosting two info sessions to make it convenient for parents with multiple Gorrie students. Please choose either 5:00-5:30 or 5:30-6:00.
In addition, there will be a PTA meeting held in the cafeteria to discuss the highlights of their events this year.
We hope to see you there!
