As the leaves change and we are fortunate to have such nice weather these past few weeks, GKMS is gearing up for a busy month. In addition to the academic work being done in classrooms, October is a big month for community service projects. Below is a brief list of all the GKMS happenings this month:
- Boys Basketball Tryouts for 7th and 8th Grade: Oct. 13, 14, & 17. Tryouts are from 3-5 at GKMS. The parent meeting for boys basketball will be Wednesday, Oct. 12, 7pm at GKMS.
- The canned food drive, sponsored by Student Council and the Community Impact Club, is all month long. Students can bring cans to watch the Student-Faculty Basketball Game, which will take place Oct. 28th.
- The canned food drive Halloween Dance will take place on Oct. 31, from 3-5 at GKMS. Students may wear costumes to the dance, but not to school. Price is $5 or 5 canned items.
- 1st quarter ends Oct. 14th. Look for report cards sent home the following week.
- One Dramatic Evening will take place Oct. 13 at 6:30.
GKMS takes pride in these community service opportunities. We hope our kids become involved in these valuable learning experiences!
