Remember your School Supplies and Field Trip Donations

If you didn't get your field trip and school supplies donations made at Back to School Night, please give them to your classroom teacher. Please make two separate checks out to “Gardner Bullis School” and include your child's name and grade on each check. School supply donation is $40 per child. Field trip donations are $50 per child for all grades, except for 4th ($350 — includes Coloma overnight) and 6th ($325.)  We need to get these in. Please see Cathy Voelker in the office if you need assistance with these payments.

GB PARENTS Saved Hot Lunch!        

Thanks to all of you who are repeat Hot Lunch servers and to our new parent servers (and one Grandpa) who have stepped up to close the gap on our volunteer needs. However, we’re still short 4-6 people on Thursdays and Fridays. If you have 1.15 hour(s) that you could volunteer, even if it’s for one shift a month, you would make a great contribution. As compensation, you receive $$$ lunch credit for your time. Please contact Nancy O’Neal at gbhotlunch@gmail.com with your availability. We thank you for your support and time making this PTA program a great success.
