Tomorrow is fall count day… This is an important day because it determines how much funding all districts in the state of Michigan will receive to provide academic programs for our students. We would love to see each of our students be present at school tomorrow. Every student counts!
Reminder: The Primary School Walk to School Event is this Friday at River Oaks Park.
Students grades 1-3 will meet at 7:15-7:30 and walk to school.
Families are welcome to join!
It’s a great day to make it a great day!
Attention Soccer Players and Parents:
Please be advised that Mr. Woodard sent out a Google Form to all 8th-11th grade students regarding soccer. Anyone interested in playing soccer next fall should fill out the form. This would be a boy's team, but girls can play as well.
In addition, there is a second option if we do not have enough for a team. We are exploring the possibility of joining with Comstock High School to create a "Cooperative" team. This would be a boy's only team since they already offer a girl's team in the spring.
Reminder: In the spirit of homecoming and the community, today Gull Lake Distilling Company is donating 10% of all sales to G-A's Class of 2024!!!! Enjoy yummy good in a fun environment while supporting our seniors!
G-A Community,
Now that the USDA is no longer offering free lunches to all students, MANY of you have expressed interest in contributing funds for students who have zero or negative balances.
If you would like to contribute funds for these students, checks can be sent to the G-ACS Central Office at 1076 N. 37th Street Galesburg, MI 49053.
Please address to Attn: Cheryl Cadwell and put "Angel Account" on the subject or memo line of the check.
We appreciate your concern and care for the students of G-A! Small towns, BIG hearts! ❤️
Tonight is Youth Football Night!
ATTENTION SOCCER PARENTS/STUDENTS
Comstock has a MS soccer CLUB team. However they only have 7 boys, and can't play with 7. They have offered to open it up to G-A boys. If you are interested in playing please to contact me ASAP.
Here are the details:
Practice at Comstock Elementary on 28th Street from 6-7:30 p.m.
Games are usually on Monday and Wednesday nights, but can vary.
Looking for 6-8 grade boys
Need to know by early next week
They can play this and AYSO since this is a "club" league made up of some school teams and some club teams.

A message from food services:September 8,2022
G-A Community,
On behalf of the Galesburg-Augusta Food Service Department, we would like to update you on some important changes regarding lunch charges. Unfortunately, the Government did not pass legislation that provided free meals to all students for the 22/23 school year. It is important that you go to the mealmagic family portal and fill out the free and reduced lunch application. The portal link is on the district web page under parent links www.familyportal.cloud Also, within
that portal is the link to deposit money into your child's lunch account.
If a family is having difficulties making breakfast and/or lunch payments, please reach out to me to make payment arrangements. We will never deny a meal to a student, however if their account is negative more than $10.00 we will provide them with a peanut butter and jelly sandwich and a milk at no charge.
Lunch prices are as follows:
Primary and middle school:
Breakfast $1.60 - Lunch $2.85 - Milk $.50
High School
Breakfast $1.75 - Lunch $2.95 - Milk $.50
Thank you,
