Mrs. Eikenberry's Prodigy students used teamwork skills for a cup stacking challenge, however, the team leader could only use their voice to help their team.
The students in Mrs. Penwell and Mrs. Raike’s classes were busy writing “Where I’m From” poetry over the past three days. Students reflected on childhood memories that helped identify who they are as a person. They added in sensory details and figurative language to enhance imagery and depth of the poem. After using peer feedback to make any adjustments, every student enjoyed reciting their poem. We enjoyed all of the poems!
Students in Mrs. Molloy's science classes made structures to see if they could withstand a simulated earthquake.
Congratulations to Miss Jaycox's sixth grade math students who finished their ALEKs pie. Way to go, Ellen, Orion, and Rooker! 🤩🐯

Dear Families,
For the first time since 1806, Ohio will be the site of a total solar eclipse on April 8, 2024. While many portions of the state will have the opportunity to experience totality, even those outside the path of totality will see 95% or more of the sun eclipsed. The entire eclipse process takes place over several hours on the afternoon of Monday, April 8, with a short totality in the middle of the event.
This rare astronomical event presents an opportunity for families and staff members to travel within our own state to observe the total eclipse in person. While considering the fact that we would have to adjust our dismissal times for students, and the fact that this presents a great experience for families, we have decided that we will not be in session on Monday, April 8, 2024.
We encourage students and families to take this opportunity to observe the total eclipse safely. Partial phases of any solar eclipse can only be safely viewed with specialized eye protection. Teachers will be sharing information about the solar eclipse in advance of April 8, and you can also find information provided by the Department of Education and Workforce at:
education.ohio.gov/Topics/Learning-in-Ohio/Science/Resources-for-Science/2024-Solar-Eclipse
We apologize for any inconvenience the April 8 closure may cause. If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to contact us. We appreciate your understanding and cooperation.
Respectfully,
Quincey Gray, Superintendent
Mrs. Dyer and Ms. Smith's seventh grade math classes embraced the challenge of a recent grit challenge, Crazy Eights. They had to try to find the eight ways to fold the paper and get all four of each number back together. All classes were able to persevere and find all eight solutions collectively! Way to go, seventh grade Tigers!
GMS Hi-Y had a great time reading to the preschool students at First Presbyterian Church!
Please take a minute to read the newest edition of the GMS Paws*itive Press!
Our 7th grade Lady Tigers basketball team defeated Miami Trace this evening to become the FAC champions! 👏🏼👏🏼
