TRACK AND FIELD:                                                                                   

Our Gibson Grizzlies had a fantastic day, performing well in their events and representing Gibson with a positive attitude, teamwork, and great sportsmanship throughout the day. We are very proud of all of our athletes for their effort, perseverance, and school spirit. Congratulations as well to the students who qualified for the District Track Meet — we look forward to seeing you continue to represent the Grizzlies so well next Thursday, May 14th at ND.

Thank you as well to our parent drivers for helping transport our students to and from the event safely.

A special thank you to our staff for the many hours spent organizing practices, preparing students, and supporting our athletes throughout the season and on meet day. Your dedication, encouragement, and commitment helped make this a very successful and memorable experience for our students.

Lost and Found:

Our Lost and Found is currently overflowing with clothing and other items that have been left behind. If your child is missing anything, we encourage you to stop by and take a look before the end of the school year. Thank you!

CLASS PLACEMENT:  Form Attached Below

During the month of June, staff will be deciding on the preliminary placement of students for our next year’s class compositions. Previous academic success, social dynamics, placement history, and overall classroom dynamics are all components for consideration when we make up the classes.  The goal is to place children in classrooms where they will flourish academically and socially.

If you have information about your child and the kind of learning environment in which she/he best works and learns, and you would like to share this information with our staff, please fill in the “Student Placement Consideration” form by clicking on the link below.  Please complete the form no later than Friday, May 22nd, 2026. Please complete one form for each child. Please note: this form is completely optional. Parents are not required to complete it.

GB-Classroom Placement Request Form

If you have a request to make, it must include educational reasons that explain how your child will benefit. Please do not request individual teachers. Remember that we have many considerations in placing students and cannot guarantee to meet your requests. Understandably, the final decisions for student placements are left to the school administration.
