Dear Parents and Students,

We would like to welcome you all to GMS whether your child is returning or new to the building. We anticipate your involvement and cooperation in making this year successful. This handbook has been prepared to help answer many questions students and parents may have throughout the year about GMS policies, procedures, and activities. We believe following these procedures will help to create a safe school environment conducive to learning.

Everyone at GMS believes collaboration and working together produces the best results for our students. We would like to encourage parents, teachers, support personnel, students, and the community to work together to ensure our students become high achieving, respectful, and responsible citizens. Parent involvement is critical to student success, and we look forward to working with each of you.

GMS is a great place to be each and every day. It is our desire for students to prepare for success in the current school year and future years. Working with and supporting each other will enable GMS to be a safe and respectful place with high levels of learning.
