We are thankful to the Clay Center ELKS for stocking our student pantry. Previously students could find clothes, and toiletry supplies, and now we have groceries and snacks to offer as well. We are so thankful for this thoughtful donation.
We are so happy to have Mrs. Ferguson on our roster everyday, but we are especially excited to celebrate her today. This weekend Mrs. Ferguson is joining the other Kansas Teachers of the Year in Wichita for some learning and recognition of their great work! #usd379

Earlier in the year we shared our staff stats regarding our years of service and positions. Today we are kicking off our celebration of our GES "team roster" by sharing our collectible baseball cards. Each Friday a new staff member will be celebrated and shared over Facebook, email and as well as hanging up in our building. Students will have baseball card dividers in their Mentor Monday binders where they can collect the baseball cards that come out each Friday for a new staff member! This week we are so excited to introduce Starr Gordon to you! See her collectible baseball card below! #usd379 #Garfield379
