We have the best PTO!

A HUGE thank you to all of our wonderful teachers who went above and beyond to create some AMAZING pumpkins with their students!

🏆 We are so excited to announce that we took home 2nd PLACE at the Grand Saline Trunk or Treat!

One of the best parts of the night was watching the kids run up to their class pumpkins, full of excitement, ready to show their parents what they helped create! 🥹🧡 Those smiles are exactly why we do what we do!

Thank you to all the parents, families, and community members who came out and voted for our “Great Pumpkin” People’s Choice Award! 🎃

Every dollar raised that night goes directly back to our classrooms to provide parties for our pumpkin contest winners! 🎉

We can’t wait to make this an annual tradition! See you next year! 🎃🍂

🍎 What a SWEET surprise! 🍎

A big THANK YOU to one of our very thoughtful teachers, Mrs. Katie Gilbreath, who surprised us with an apple bar today! Without a word or any fanfare, she quietly set it up for everyone to enjoy. Just a simple, sweet gesture that made everyone’s day a little brighter!

It’s the little things like this that make our GSIS family so special. We are blessed to work alongside people who think of others and go out of their way to make someone’s day.

A little kindness goes a long way, and today, it tasted like apples! ❤️🍏
