On Friday morning, June 2, staff and students honored Don Foley as he walked through the halls as a teacher here at G-E-T one last time.

What does the number 6,460 mean to you? For Most of us it is a random number. But, for one of us here today it means a lifetime of dedication to one district. 6,460 is the same as 34 years of teaching. This morning we would like to take a moment to recognize Mr. Foley and thank him for his hard work and dedication to the many students that he has worked with both in the classroom and on the track and field. Please step out into the hallway so we can recognize Mr. Foley with his last walk through the school and wish him a happy retirement.

Congratulations to Jordan Stanislowski for qualifying for the State Track meet in LaCrosse for the Triple Jump.

It's not too late to register your child for summer school. We have a couple new classes this year. One of them is Community & Recreation Activities Gr 4-8 - which is a 3 hour class) - Community Rec Activities is a class designed to explore the different activities that are available within the GET community. We will spend 1-2 days learning and participating in each of the following:

• Disc Golf

• Bowling

• Geocaching

• Archery

• Sand Volleyball

• Pickleball

• Rollerblading

Another one is "Reading, and Writing, and words, OH MY!" This one is for grades 1-3. During this session, we will work on reading and writing skills with a dash of grammar and vocabulary work built in. We will work on practicing our literacy skills with independent reading and writing with one on one time with the teacher, crosswords, and word finds. The goal of this session is to warm up and refresh our knowledge in order to be ready to take on your child(ren)'s next elementary school year. 

We also have a class "Books to Art" for grades 3-5. This course will teach students how to use different forms of literature to inspire creativity using different forms of art. We will use paint, food, sculpture, etc to build art based off of the books we read during class time.

Other classes that are being offered this year that may not have been in the last few years are Spanish, Rocketry and Enrichment Writing.

There are also 2 levels for wrestling, 3 levels of basketball, 3 levels of gymnastics, Angling, Sew Much More, Photography and many more classes to choose from. Registration is done electronically for the first time this year.
