Dear ACE Families,
As we wrap up our last day of school before winter break, I want to wish all of our families a very happy and safe holiday season.
Thank you to the many parents and volunteers who helped make our classroom holiday parties so special. We truly could not do it without your time, energy, and generosity. A special thank you goes out to our PTO for all the work they put forth in making the holidays special for staff and students.
This past week was full of fun and memories, especially with the Grinch making daily appearances around the building! Thankfully, our SRO, Deputy McVay, saved the day on Friday when the Grinch was escorted to the principal’s office, restoring peace and holiday cheer just in time for break.
Important Message from Our School Nurse
Annual School Health Screens for grades 1–4 will take place on Tuesday, January 6th. The State of Nebraska requires students to have their Vision, Hearing, Height, Weight, and Dental screened.
Parents/guardians may waive height and weight measurements by submitting a written objection to Nurse Lisa.
To waive Hearing, Vision, and/or Dental screening, parents/guardians must submit a written statement from a qualified examiner confirming their child received the minimum required screenings within the past six months.
If you have any questions, please call Nurse Lisa at (402) 332-5617 or email lhorst@gpsne.org.
We hope everyone enjoys a restful and joyful winter break. We look forward to welcoming students back in the new year. Classes will resume on Monday, January 5th.
Happy Holidays,
Mrs. Kistler
