The open house will from 5-6pm. The PTA meeting will start at 6pm in the cafeteria.
Additionally, all parents must be aware that children who received free meals last year are pre-approved to receive free meals for the first 30 days of the 2004-2005 school year.
To continue free meals for the rest of the school year, parents need to reapply for the free meal program as soon as possible (students will bring applications home as soon as they are available). Parents are also advised to submit all requested documents to ensure timely processing.
Only students who were approved for free meals last year are approved for free meals until Sept. 18. All other students must purchase their meals ($0.50 for breakfast, $0.75 for lunch).
“If your child was not approved for free meals last year, please send the appropriate amount of money or a packed lunch with your child every day to ensure that he or she may eat healthy meals,” GES said.
As a reminder, GES hours are from 7:30am to 2:20pm. Parents are requested to please ensure that their children arrive at school between 7am and 7:30am. If he or she is not a bus rider, parents are advised to pick up their children before 3pm.
