In early October, our 8th graders and our 12th graders participated in the Annual VFW Patriot's Pen and Voices of Democracy Essay contests. We would like to congratulate Madison Arnold (8th) for being selected at GISD for the Patriot's Pen, Katherine Philley (12th) for earning an Honorable Mention for the Voices of Democracy, and Hunter Brown for earning 3rd place for the Voices of Democracy!



We can’t wait to see everyone tomorrow for our Festival of Lights on the Gary Square! There is a slight change of location for our first event; the Breakfast with Santa will now be held at the GISD Cafeteria at 9AM! All other Festival of Lights activities and vendors will still be held at the Gary Square!
Next week, on December 11th, our annual Gary Basketball Tournament begins! Our Class of 2028 are preparing for the massive event and plan to have all kinds of delicious goodies in the concession stand during the games! Check out the menu for more details!

No cell phones at school or during lunch? No problem! Our 5th and 6th grade boys have no issue finding ways to have fun without technology!


Congratulations to all of our Elementary Students of the Month for November!


Our annual Literacy Night happens tonight! We hope everyone can come stop by to listen to their teachers share their favorite stories, create a cute Christmas ornament, and enjoy some holiday themed treats! It all begins at the Elementary at 5:30PM and will last until 6:45!

Pictures with Santa will be taken on Tuesday, Dec. 9 from 8:30–10:30 a.m, check out the flyer for more details! The Santa pictured in the flyer will be the same Santa featured during that picture day.

Due to a conflict with the Little Dribblers basketball schedule, we are changing some of the performance times for the Festival of Lights. We hope this will allow as many as possible to come out to our wonderful event!

Our annual Literacy Night is on this Thursday, December 4th from 5:30-6:45PM! Wear your favorite pajamas and join us as teachers share some of their favorite Christmas stories as well as creating Christmas ornaments and enjoying some special treats!
