Good evening GA Families,
As stated in the robo-call currently being sent out to families, we are going to close for the day tomorrow (Friday, December 16). This is due to the large number of students and staff who are ill. We hope by providing a long weekend for folks to get better, next week can be a productive week of learning before the long winter break.
Our custodial staff will complete a thorough and deep clean before students return on Monday. The basketball games are still on for tonight, however the music concert for 1st and 2nd grade that was scheduled for tonight will be rescheduled for a day program sometime next week. Please watch for that announcement.
And finally, the daycare will also be closed tomorrow for cleaning.
Thank you.
Basketball Update: The GIRL'S JV basketball game tonight has been cancelled. The boy's JV game will now follow the freshmen game at approximately 5:30 p.m.

Check out a few of our senior lockers! College acceptance swag!
It is with great excitement for our students that the Board approved the bids that came in (all lowest bidders which is awesome!) at Wednesday evening’s Special Board Meeting.
While costs are up, we are fortunate that interest earnings on the bond funds are very good,and the bond sales were better than anticipated. As a result, the district is able to afford synthetic turf for Maskill Field, without compromising any of the other goals with all three projects.
Because the Board made this decision this week, we should have the turf installed in time for a few home football games next fall 2023! With a grass field, home games would not happen until the fall of 2024. We are so excited to cheer on our G-A Rams next fall!
Soon at both the Primary School and High School, you will begin to see equipment coming on site. Fencing will be put up for student safety where necessary. We hope many of you can join us for the ground breaking ceremonies in November.
With much gratitude to our taxpayers and everyone who helped get the bond passed,
Wendy Maynard-Somers, Superintendent

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!
