The Grizzly Gazette Nov 18 – 22

Dear Gibson Elementary Parents,

I wanted to take a moment to express my sincere gratitude for your continued support of our school and community. Your involvement plays a crucial role in making Gibson Elementary such a special place for our students.

Thank you for being an integral part of our school community. Whether it’s through your support at PAC events, your engagement in your child’s learning, or simply being there when needed, we truly appreciate everything you do. A special thank you to our PAC (Parent Advisory Council) for their unwavering dedication and hard work in organizing events and supporting our school—your contributions make a world of difference.

We also want to extend our thanks for taking the time to read the Grizzly Gazette. Your attention to our updates and newsletters helps keep us all connected, and it’s one of the many ways we strengthen our partnership between school and home.

Together, we are creating an environment where students thrive, and we couldn’t do it without you. Thank you for being such an important part of our Gibson family!

 

TEATIME, HEALTHY SNACKS AND BREAKFAST CLUB

We are excited to announce that Teatime is back! We invite all parents and caregivers to join us for a relaxing morning of tea and coffee while connecting with our wonderful Gibson community. Join us this Thursday from 9:05 to 10:05 AM in the Multipurpose Room. It’s a great opportunity to meet fellow parents/caregivers and share experiences. Thank you for being such an integral part of our community. We look forward to seeing you at Teatime!
This year, we’re thrilled to introduce healthy snack bins in each pod, encouraging our students to explore nutritious options. Funded by our Feeding Future Grant. Our initiative aims to promote healthier choices among our students while reducing processed snacks. We believe that with community support, we can make an even greater impact. If you’re able to contribute, any donations would be greatly appreciated, especially as fresh fruits and vegetables can be costly.
Additionally, we’ve launched our Breakfast Club, and we welcome donations of plain bagels, Honey Nut Cheerios, or monetary contributions to support this program. Every little bit helps us provide nutritious meals for our students.
