Dear Families,
It was a short week, but we are all glad to be back together! I hope everyone has stayed warm with all this snow! We will be celebrating our 100th day of school next Wednesday (assuming we have no more cold/snow days).
Mark your calendars! At the PTO meeting last Tuesday night, plans are in the works for a Valentines dance on Friday, Feb. 9th at 6:30 PM. This a family event that will include a kid-friendly DJ. More information to come.
Thank you for sharing your children with us! Have a warm and safe weekend.

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.
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.
