Congratulations to our Greater Gators for September! These students showed qualities of self-control and respect!
Coins for a Cause starts today! The funds raised will be split between the United Way (in support of local homeless shelters) and Ganiard student council (in support of holiday shopping for some Ganiard families in need). All classrooms have a jar to collect coins! The class that collects the most money earns a pizza party! Let's show our support Gators!
We had our first tornado drill of the year. We are required to do 2 a year. The students did a great job getting to their designated locations quickly. We are posting this so that you are aware and in case your children have any questions.

Mrs. Wood, our speech teacher, came in to teach some classes about communication devices and how some people need to use them to communicate. They even got to try and communicate with their group using the device! Most of the students call these devices a talker! If you'd like to learn more we have provided a link. https://youtu.be/zpDq7stIbRQ?si=4S5VCjMM6I8MlDS6

Yesterday was our first Gator Swap of the year! Teachers have an activity in their classroom and the students get to choose which activity they would like to participate in. It is a fun way for the teachers to get to know other students and for the students to have some fun! We aim for one Gator Swap at the end of each month. https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1Hvv-2ekWzuhqg5G9qwkaJudWwyX0mWd5?usp=sharing
Our Native students had lunch with their Native Advocate and Tutor. We held a discussion about our 7 grandfather teachings. This was an introduction for some students, our hope is to discuss each teaching and gather a better understanding of the teachings that have been passed down for generations.
Popcorn tomorrow!
Ganiard Elementary students would like to give a big THANK YOU to the Mt. Pleasant Area Community Foundation and the Harkins Community Fund for their generous grant award to provide PE equipment for our students! This grant made it possible to buy new soccer balls, basketballs, hockey sticks, and a tumbling mat for students to work on their new skills!
