Ms.Weaver's Boulevard class is seen doing a stem project today where they had 20 minutes to put together an igloo with marshmallows and toothpicks that could withstand artic wind (we used a hairdryer).
Third grade students and families generously donated sleepwear for our annual Pajama Drive. We collected over 30 pair of pajamas to be distributed to families in need this holiday season.
14 students from the GMS Builders Club spent this past Saturday, December 18th, raising funds for the Salvation Army. The club raised over $300 during their drive and spread Christmas cheer to shoppers while collecting. It was a job well done!
Mrs. Wheaton's class used the ClassVR headsets for the first time to end our Holidays Around the World unit. We traveled around the Earth, looked at the world in the different seasons, and other holiday virtual reality. We are excited to use it again in January!
GMS drama club students enjoyed playing a variety of improv games at their December meeting. All GMS students are welcome to join the club! The next meeting will be January 21, with a set design challenge activity.

GHS "In the spirit" Days

[GESD] Gloversville schools are closed again today 12/8/2021. The water main break has been fixed, however there is insufficient water pressure to several of our school buildings due to catastrophic water loss over the last 24 hours. The system needs time to recover.
Gloversville schools will be on a two hour delay today 12/8 due to on going water main issue in the city. We hope to have full pressure back throughout our school buildings later this morning. A final decision will be made by 8:00 am.
We have secured enough bottled drinking water for all students and staff to last several days. If the city is successful in fixing the water main break, and we build adequate water pressure to run our sinks and toilets, we will be in session tomorrow
[GESD] Gloversville schools will be closed today Tuesday December 7th due to a water main break in the city and the boiled water advisory.
If you did not receive an all-call & text message this morning from the Superintendent of Schools informing you that the district will be closed today due to a water main break, PLEASE update your contact information by calling your child's school.
The Board of Education Meeting will be held tonight at 6:30pm at the Gloversville Middle School Cafeteria. This meeting will be live-streamed to the district's Facebook page and then promptly uploaded to the GESD YouTube channel.
