It was an exciting week here at Gildersleeve! On Wednesday, our school community came together for our October Town Meeting. A special shout-out to our Hive Council members from Mrs. Constantino’s class, who did a fantastic job serving as our emcees!
We had lots to celebrate and share! Miss Brede’s class introduced a special Veterans Day project, inviting students to create cards for our local veterans. Mrs. Graf also shared our Vision of the Graduate focus: “I do my part and help my group do our best!” To bring this to life, each class was challenged to work together to design a pumpkin protector that will help their pumpkin survive a launch from the roof of Gildersleeve! We can't wait to see the creativity and teamwork in action!
On Thursday, we enjoyed a Spooktacular Assembly presented by Mad Science of Western New England. There was plenty of laughing, oohing, and ahhing as our students enjoyed this exciting program. We are grateful to the Gildersleeve Grant for funding this wonderful experience for our students!
Finally, we wrapped up the week with one of our favorite Gildersleeve traditions—our Annual Halloween Parade! We loved having the PHS Band join us to kick off the festivities and help make the day extra special.
Wishing everyone a fun and safe weekend!
