GOK Weekly News
Week of January 13, 2025
Hello Georgia O'Keeffe Families,
In January, the weather can be quite unpredictable, with temperatures often dropping suddenly. Please remember to dress your children in warm layers, including hats, gloves, and winter coats, to ensure they stay comfortable during outdoor activities. Proper winter attire is essential for their health and safety, especially during recess or arrival and dismissal times. Thank you for helping keep our students warm and ready for the day!
Just a friendly reminder, to please write your child's name on jackets, lunch boxes, water bottles, etc. If there is a name on items left in the lost and found, we will do our best to get the item back to your child.
Respectfully,
Cindy Gaillour, Principal, gaillour@aps.edu
and
Kristina Anderson, Assistant Principal, kristina.anderson@aps.edu
