As we come to the week of Thanksgiving, I have so many things to be thankful for.
I am thankful for…
…the whole Bobcat community for welcoming me as the new principal here at GBS in such an unprecedented time. Your grace, flexibility, and understanding has been humbling.
…an amazing staff,
Students and teachers at GBS are re-imagining how to “do school” this year. Even though we can’t use most of our tents yet, classes are happening outside. Students are connecting with their teachers, as well as their in-person and remote peers. Teachers are finding new and creative ways to engage their students academically while supporting their social-emotional needs.
Even though our tents aren’t quite ready for use – teachers are still taking advantage of the good weather to conduct classes outside. We are anticipating the good news that we can use the tents as outdoor learning spaces, but until then…we will get creative!
On September 8, 2020 Great Brook School opened its doors (physical and virtual) to welcome students back to school. With safety measures in place such as health screenings, temperature checks, mask wearing, and physical distancing, students joined the teachers in the building. Although not all of our students are back in the building yet, we are providing instruction to our “Remote Bobcats”
Dear Bobcat Community,
On Friday, the district will send out the draft of our reopening plan. We anticipate that you may have questions and we would like to invite you to a GBS community meeting to get answers to those questions. On Wednesday August 5th, there will be two GBS specific meetings. The first one will be at 5:00pm and will take place in the ConVal High School Gymnasium.
GBS now has an official Facebook page.
This page will be used to connect with the wider GBS community and share the exciting things that are happening at Great Brook School.
Please visit and like our page and encourage others to do the same.
