Home and School
The GSMS home and school association is a parent volunteer group. The H&S has 2 main mandates:
1) to raise funds to support the school
2) to receive information about the school.
In the past the H&S has raised money that has funded a number of initiatives in the school. Some examples are: FM sound systems in a number of classrooms that amplifies the teacher’s voice, a ceiling mounted in-focus machine in the River room, hush-ups for the classroom chairs (look like tennis balls, makes the room quiet), 10 laptops for the library which has greatly improved our computer lab.
Along with providing the school with many extras that have helped improve student learning, the monthly H&S meetings provide parents with an opportunity to speak directly with one of the school’s vice-principals about the “goings-on” at the school. Many parents have noted that this regular contact makes them feel more connected to the school community.
We meet once per month except before the November fundraiser when we meet a bit more often.
Our first meeting will take place on Wednesday September 30 from 6:30-7:30 in the school’s boardroom.
Please join us!
