What's up, GSE?!? - Week of: 2.28.11 - 3.5.11

What's up this week at Garden Springs:

First, let's give a HUGE CONGRATULATIONS to the GSE GOVERNOR'S CUP Academic Team...they placed SECOND overall in the District and had at least one place in every single area of the competition!!!  We are sooooo proud of all of our students who have practiced so hard, worked so diligently, have persevered through this intense battle and are moving on to the region competition in March.  This team consists of 17 4th and 5th grade students who had to try out to be a part of it...basically, it is like our school's sport's team and is a tough, tough team to be a part of...much less place in competition!!!  Way to go guys...you are smart, intelligent, wonderful, brilliant, geniuses, etc.... the list could go on for miles...we are just overcome with elation for YOU!!!

Don't forget to turn in Boxtops, Campbell's Label's, and Tyson labels!!!

Here is the link you need for the Campbell's Label's website: http://www.labelsforeducation.com/ 

If you go the top right hand corner and put our schools zip code (40504), it will bring up all of the Lexington, KY schools.  Select, Garden Springs Elementary (there is also a Garden Springs Day school - just so you are aware to look for the CORRECT one) and it will let you sign up.  

Here is another link to hook up your Kroger card so that every time you purchase Campbell's label items it will automatically go to our school account: http://www.elabelsforeducation.com/Sites/Campbells_eLabels/Page/HomePage.  

(As always, you can also still clip and send them in with your student as well).
