Attention Parents:
If your child will take daily medication or may require occasional or emergency medication at school during the 2024-2025 school year, you will need to drop off those medications to the Nurse prior to the start of school. You will also need to have your child's medical provider complete and sign a medication permission slip as well as any emergency plans for allergies, asthma, and/or seizure disorders. These plans are attached to this email.

Great Falls is all about school spirit! Throughout the year, we will have many days to celebrate our school community by encouraging students to wear the color maroon or any type of Gorham gear. Feel free to order directly from the site as a portion of the proceeds will go directly to Great Falls. Thank you for your support!
