Thank you to those who attended the supper and meeting on January 17th!  I hope the meeting enhanced your understanding of the Nebraska state tests (NeSA) and the national assessment instrument (MAPs) that GRMS students take every year.  I have attached the powerpoint presentation under the FILES section for your review at any time.  Please call us if there are any questions.  Thanks again!

Parents & Guardians,

There are times based on a students behavior that a teacher needs to assign a lunch detention.  Lunch detention is held in the library during the students lunch period.  Students who receive lunch detention will have a sack lunch prepared and delivered to them.  Sack lunches consist of a sandwich, vegetable, fruit, and milk.  A record will be kept of students, the assigning teacher, and the reason for the detention.  The ultimate goal is to have students change the undesirable behavior and complete tasks and be responsible for their behaviors.

Please call me if you have any questions, comments, or concerns at 327-2491.

Thank you,

Casey Slama
Principal
