Picture Day is tomorrow! We will be taking photos for the yearbook of any student who wasn't present for our Fall Picture Day. We will also be taking group pictures of boy's basketball, girl's basketball, Dance Pups, football, academics, and cheer.

Please send your child's uniform with them to school! If you have any questions, please message your child's homeroom teacher on Rooms.

🌨️ Let's Be Prepared for NTI Days! 💻 As we head into the winter months, we want to be prepared just in case bad weather causes us to have an NTI (Non-Traditional Instruction) Day. All teachers will be sending home an NTI information letter and a student login badge. Please keep both items in a safe place at home so they are easily accessible if we need to transition to virtual learning. The letter will provide helpful information, and the student badge will assist your child with logging in to their Chromebook and accessing assignments. We hope we won't need them often, but being prepared helps make the transition easier for everyone! Thank you for helping us keep learning going, no matter the weather! ❤️🩶🐾

Our 5th graders are working hard on their Digital Leadership websites! 💻🐾 These students are taking ownership of their learning as they prepare to teach others about their leadership, grades, attendance, and all the wonderful things that make each of them special! This project is a great example of Leader in Me Habit 1: Be Proactive! Students are taking initiative, recognizing their strengths, and taking responsibility for sharing their goals with others. We can't wait to see their hard work come to life! Our Greyhounds are learning that leadership starts with taking action! ❤️🩶

Calling all Flat Gap families! We need your help! We would like for every family to write a family mission statement that we can display in our hallway. It doesn’t have to be long! So, gather your family, sit down, and decide what is your mission. Use the link below and don’t forget to attach a family photo! https://bit.ly/fgfamilymission

Mrs. O'Bryan put a spell on our primary students and prepped them for Halloween by making, "Witches' Brew."

Congratulations to Coach Fields and her academic team! We are encouraged with the first week's assessment results! Keep working hard, Greyhounds! #GreyhoundGrit #GreatandGettingGreater
