Dear Falling Waters Families, 

Tonight is our PTO's Valentines dance.  This is a FREE family event; please be sure to have an adult attend with your child.  It is sure to be a "sweet time". 

We will have classroom Valentines Day parties during the day on February 14th at 2:30 PM. Parents are welcome to attend the parties if you would like.  LAST CHANCE! Candy Gram information is still available in our printable flyers!  Click here to be taken right there.    

As a reminder, if a student has forgotten something in their classroom or locker after hours and the office is closed (lights out)- our Kids Connections staff can not allow families back to the lockers or classroom.  We appreciate your understanding with this, and items can be picked up or completed the following morning or day. 

Remember, there is no school on President's Day, February 19th and no school for current kindergarteners only on round up day, February 23rd

Parents are able to access their child's lunch account online.  Visit our Food & Nutrition Services website here.  Accounts and payment information can be found here.    

If you should have any questions regarding your child’s lunch account, please feel free to contact our lunch paraprofessional, Mrs. Kelly Leahy at  402-332-3938 or kleahy@gpsne.org.  

If you would like to help support this project, there is a list of items here that she will be using to complete it!  

Students are welcome to celebrate their birthdays at school!  Please be sure treats are store bought.  Check with your child's teacher if they are a nut-free classroom.


To help your child's birthday celebration run smoothly, please send the treats with your child to school in the morning.

Guests are welcome to join us at lunch. There will be special "Guest" tables set up in the lunchroom for you and your child to eat.  Your child will not be allowed to invite another student to eat with them at the guest table.

We do ask that you limit lunch visits to birthdays only until after Labor Day to allow for us to teach expectations and help students learn the routines and procedures.  Thank you for your help and understanding.


Meal Benefit Applications are available by clicking here.

Be sure to check out our Printable Flyers website.
