SECOND TRIMESTER PROGRESS REPORTS
On January 23rd, staff members will be calculating mid-trimester grades for students. Progress reports will be mailed home shortly thereafter. Please be sure to check Parent Assist (see link on Sidebar Menu) to see how your student is doing in each of their classes. This is a great opportunity to help them turn in missing assignments, check on progress, and either celebrate their successes or encourage them to perform better in class.
PARKING LOT GRIDLOCK
For those of you who either drop off, or pick up your students at Gordon Russell, you may have noticed a bit of traffic in the parking lot. Please help this situation by dropping your child off no earlier than 8:45 AM. Also, when dropping students off, please do not park your vehicle in traffic lanes and visit as this creates additional traffic congestion. When picking students up, do not stop your vehicle by the front gates. Please pull all the way forward and form two lines in the middle of the lot. Several people have been parking by the gates preventing buses from entering the lot and causing major traffic jams on Powell Valley Road. We can only solve this problem with your help. Thank you in advance for being a considerate driver.
EARN MONEY FOR GRMS BY SHOPPING ON-LINE
What if Gordon Russell earned a donation every time you searched the Internet? Or what if a percentage of every purchase that you made on-line went to support our cause? Now it can! GoodSearch.com is a Yahoo-powered search engine that donates half its advertising revenue, about a penny per search, to charities its users designate. Use it just as you would any search engine, get quality search results from Yahoo, and watch the donations add up!
GoodShop.com is a new on-line shopping mall, which donates up to 30 percent of each purchase to your favorite cause. Hundereds of great stores including: Amazon, Target, Gap, Best Buy, eBay, Barnes and Nobel, and Macy's have teamed up so that every time you place an order, you'll be supporting your favorite cause (which is hopefully GRMS).
GRMS ROCK STARS!
Gordon Russell staff have started a tradition of identifying influential staff members each month as a RockStar. A RockStar is a staff member who has impacted students and staff in a positive way and has gone above and beyond the call of duty. This is a perpetual award in the sense that last months recipient nominates the next staff member for the award. This month, Roxanne Carlson, a PE teacher and Linda Eby a Counselor have been recognized as RockStars. For a complete nomination description download GRMS RockStars.
