THANK YOU to ALL of the amazing chaperones who helped make sure our field trip to Ripley's was so much fun! We hope you had a great time too!!

STAAR Testing

Please note our STAAR testing dates below. On testing days, Glenhope is closed to visitors so please keep that in mind. Additionally, we would appreciate you not scheduling any appointments on these days, as students will have to miss class time during the testing window to make up the STAAR testing they missed. If they miss a STAAR exam, they will have to spend an entire day of school when they return to make that test up.

Glow Day - Set Up Volunteers Needed

Thank you so much for all your donations to make our Glow Day the best day ever!

We can't believe Glow Day is next Friday! We are looking for volunteers to help set up our rooms next Thursday after school. This would entail putting black butcher paper on our windows, black tablecloths on the tables, and hanging up decor. If you're available next Thursday from 3:15 to 4:30 to help, please use the link below to sign up. Thank you in advance for your help!

Glow Day - Supplies Needed

Thanks to everyone who has donated materials for our 4th grade Glow Day on April 4th. We sincerely appreciate it. There are still materials on our list that are very much needed, which we have noted with a "highest" or "high" priority. For example, every classroom will need 3-4 blacklight bars for the day to really be "Glow Day." The 4th grade wish list is below. We are very excited to provide this day of learning for students!
