Goddard PTO
Dear Goddard Families,
As we approach the end of the school year, we are reminded of the amazing teachers and staff we have here at Goddard MS.
The Goddard PTO is thrilled to plan and celebrate Teacher Appreciation Week, May 6-10, 2024 because we have the best teachers & staff in the world! Throughout the week, we will take a special trip each day to various parts of the world with themed snacks, meals or treats. If you would like to help us shower our teachers and staff with appreciation, please review the signup sheet below and/or send your student's teachers a handwritten note or an email to say thank you! As we get close to the end of the school year, this is a great opportunity to show our teachers and all of our staff just how much they mean to us and our community! Sign up here:

Teacher Testimonials
6th Grade Language Arts:
"The 6th grade language arts teachers used the grant money to publish individual anthologies for each of the 6th graders. They got to write their own poetry, journals, and stories and then illustrate their pieces. Each student will be able to keep this 20-page, color book to remember their historic 6th grade year."
7th Grade Math:
Geoboards - Great for kinesthetic learning (graphing lines, plotting coordinates)
8th Grade Math:
Interactive Flat Panel - Great for students to present their thinking to the class!
PTO - As always, I am humbled and grateful for all the support you give students, teachers, and everyone at Goddard. With this year's teacher grant I purchased 24 charging cords for 6th grader computers. Due to the district's budget constraints, 6th graders received some older Chromebooks. Not only that, but there are three different types each requiring a different type of charger. Our 6th grade teachers were having difficulty helping students keep their computers going for the day so the chargers were a lifesaver. Thank you very much.
