Thank you

Good Afternoon,

Thank you to all of our GMS families for your support in making today a great start to the school year. It was so good to have our students back on campus and to see the excitement and positivity!

  • If your child is a car-rider in the mornings, please pull up as far as possible within the drop-off area so that we can unload more students at once. This will help the line move much more quickly.

  • Reminder that students must have an approved walker pass to walk home from school. Students will be approved based on the following criteria:

    • Your residence is within a walkable distance from the school (approximately a 1 mile radius)

    • A student's family member works at a local business or organization within walking distance and can receive students at this location.

    • We are no longer able to approve students to walk to local business parking lots, town square, etc.

    • The walker application link is listed here: GMS Walker Application Link

  • Students did great with dismissal today. Thank you again for your patience as our students familiarize themselves with dismissal procedures. We will continue to see this process speed up each day.

I'm so grateful for the supportive community that we have at GMS.

Have a great evening,

Jacob Nelson
Principal, Gettys Middle School
