GMS Families: Have you filled out GPS’ online survey about Fall 2020 Reopening? If not, there is still time! Check out the link below to fill it out. ⬇️

Thank you to all the parents sharing your important perspective on our survey! Please keep the answers coming in! Meanwhile, here's an interesting opinion piece in the New York Times about making reopening schools a priority - what do you think? nytimes.com/2020/07/01/opi…

@Super_GPS @patenaude_karin @GreenWaveLib @Gfield_AD1 @PrincipalDole @federal_street @NewtonSchool2 Folks in fb group were confused as to which grade to mark their children as it didn't specify. Is it too late to add in a clarifier?

GPS Families: Please complete this important family survey! We need to hear from you. gpsk12.org/gps-central/ad… #gpsk12ma

For my educator friends, this is an excellent booklist: Educating to Eradicate Racial Violence and Bias demonstratedsuccess.com/Public/educati…

@ashliteracy My son got his-it looks great! Thank you for all your work!

Yearbooks hold so much. Especially this year’s 💚

Yay! We did it! School is done! Congrats to our 7th graders who are movin' on up to 8th Grade academy at GHS!

This Last Day of School certainly looks a lot different from any other, but the smiles and the tears are exactly the same.

This mobile food bank is free and open to everyone! No documentation needed. Brought to you by the Mobile Food Bank program of the Food Bank of Western Mass. 2nd Wednesdays of each month, 1:30 - 2:30 PM. More info here.

The Friends of the Greenfield Public Library have been giving out bags of used books from 10am to noon on Wednesdays for the last couple weeks. We got a tip that the GPL Grab Bag Giveaway plans to have a variety of books for kids and teens on June 10th!

It's the final week of schooling! We did it! It hasn't been easy but we have all earned summer break. I wish everyone a restful socially distanced summer in the best way they can.

This week GMS teachers and staff welcomed students as they retrieved their personal belongings. It was so, so, so good to see them! We miss you, GMS! 💚🌊💚 #WeAreGMS @PrincipalDole @Super_GPS

We are sad that schools will be closed longer, but GPS staff have already been hard at work figuring out how to keep doing the things we love, and that are important to students, while schools are closed. We are happy to say that our 10th annual Film Fest will be held virtually!

With our federal testing waiver secured and the state legislation officially enacted....I can now confirm that this spring’s regular administration of MCAS in grades 3-10 is cancelled. Further info on competency determination et al. will be forthcoming.

We are very proud to publish GPS' Remote Learning Plan. Thank you to everyone that worked so hard to make this possible. We are imagining a totally new future for our students, and I am proud of our educators who step up to help all our students succeed❤️. gpsk12.org/gps-central/ad…
