Hello Middle School families. I hope you had a great weekend.
New Information:
Drinks, Families, There has been a rise in energy drinks at school. … Please Monster Drinks or any other energy drinks are not allowed in school. Students get super hyped up and then crash after lunch. If you could partner with us on this, that would be super helpful. Thank you
Project Mitten, Project Mitten is an annual fund-raising campaign by the students of the GDRMS. All proceeds benefit the Children’s Community Fund and other local charities. Each grade is participating in various fundraising activities. You should be receiving emails from your grade level teachers. Donations are completely voluntary and no student will be excluded for participation in any activity. Some families like to make a flat donation, while others like to “pay as you participate.” All donations are gratefully accepted. If you are writing a check all checks should be made out to, “Town of Groton”. Thank you for everything you do to support our Project Mitten campaign.
Project Mitten Spirit Week is this week! Here is the flyer
