Good afternoon GMS Parents:
!We hope your child's first two weeks of the 16/17 school year is off to a great start!
Just a couple of updates to start this week...
It's Hot Outside!
It's not hot inside GMS, however, because of the heat outside, we did cancel all games tonight. All of our GMS teams are practicing in the cooler atmosphere inside. Our basketball teams are doing shooting drills and other "less running" activities. Tomorrow looks to be the same. We may have cancel again, so watch for updates throughout the day. We have boys' soccer and girls' basketball games scheduled for tomorrow after school. More info to come.
Thank you to all who were able to stop by for our annual "back to school" night. We hope you have all of your questions answered. If not, please contact your child’s homeroom teacher for more information.
GMS FNO...
We need your help! Can you help chaperone our upcoming FNO this Friday night, September 9th from 6:45 to 9? If you can help, please connect with Mrs. Harrison at [email protected]. Thank you for any help you can give. We love to give our students these opportunities.
More to come about FNO later this week. There are rules you need to know!
GMS Science Olympiad...

What in the world IS Destination Imagination?! DI is a non-profit, volunteer-led, cause-driven organization that inspires and equips students to become the next generation of innovators and leaders. Each year they offer seven new
standards-based Challenges in STEM, Improv, Visual Arts, Service Learning, and Early Learning. In working to solve the challenges, teams learn 21st century skills (creativity,
critical thinking, collaboration, communication, citizenship and courage), step outside of their comfort zones to pursue ideas and make presentations, and build on their unique strengths.

What is Foundation46? We are a nonprofit organization that provides financial and community support to all 7 District 46 schools. We support district-wide events to promote the sense of community that is so important to us all. Since the fall of 2012, we have provided $67,066 in grants to District 46 schools. Grants support a wide variety of projects in the areas of robotics, general academics, physical wellness, special education, and cross-curricular projects that integrate art and science!
We’d love to have you join us in our efforts!Directors The Board of Directors provides oversight of the organization to ensure that
Foundation46 consistently makes progress toward its mission and vision, and to ensure financial responsibility. All community members are welcome, but we particularly need representation from the Meadowview and Park School communities.
Webmaster Do you know how to use WordPress or are you eager to learn a new skill? We’d love to have a new Director who can keep our website consistently up to date.
Marketing The addition of a board member with expertise in marketing and public relations would be incredibly beneficial to the foundation. Help us increase awareness of the organization, the great things that are being accomplished, and the amazing things that can happen with enthusiastic support.
Donor Fundraising We can’t support our teachers and students without active fundraising! We are looking for volunteers to promote donations from the community, encourage use of programs such as employer match donations, and build relationships between the Foundation, local businesses, and corporations as a means of bringing in additional financial support for education in District 46.
Event Fundraising Help plan fun events that bring the community together in support of the Foundation46 mission.
Administrative Taskmaster Work from behind the scenes and never ask anyone for a dime! Perform administrative and clerical duties that keep our programs well organized.
Contact [email protected] to learn about volunteer opportunities.
Support Foundation46 with $46 FOR 46!Imagine what we could do for our students if every able family gave $46 each year.
Make a one time gift or a recurring monthly gift of $3.83.Donations of any size are welcome. Thank you for your support!!
