Good Morning Gardiner Hawks! These are your announcements for Thursday, October 5th
September 15th to October 15th is Hispanic Heritage Month. Luis Walter Alvarez was an American experimental physicist, inventor, and professor and was the first Hispanic American to be awarded the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1968 for his discovery of resonance states in particle physics using the hydrogen bubble chamber.
Attention ALL Gardiner students, For the month of October we are holding a school-wide contest. Gardiner students are respectful, responsible, safe and kind. Responsible students get to class on time and are prepared to learn. Therefore, for the month of October, the neighborhood team with the fewest number of tardies will win 15 additional minutes of recess. Remember, get to class on time, and let's do this, Gardiner!
This is National Banned Books Week. Banned Books Week is a celebration of our freedom to read whatever age-appropriate materials we want to read in our schools. Check out the banned books display this week in the ALC and participate in the banned books challenge to expand your worldview and win prizes!
Interested in joining backpack buddies? Backpack buddies is a non-profit program that offers children non-perishable bags of food for the weekend and some breaks. You can pick up a permission slip in the student support center and return it to Ms. Hernandez or Mrs. Shelton
There are only 10 more days to order from the Online Spirit Wear Store. We are selling Gardiner and ¡Todos Unidos! T-shirts, hoodies, zip-ups, and long sleeve shirts. Perfect for the cool, fall weather! Come to the Welcome Center so you can scan the QR code or check out the link on Facebook, Instagram, ParentSquare and on the Gardiner Website!
TONIGHT at 7:00 p.m. is the OCHS home football game. The cost is $4.00 for students. There is a section in the main stands for middle school students! Be sure to leave all backpacks, outside beverages, scooters, skateboards, footballs, and other items at home. They will not be able to come into the game with you. All students must show responsible, safe, respectful, and kind behavior at the game and plan to stay seated in the stands. Please bring your student I.D! Please, also take a photo of your student ID in case you forget it and have it ready to show as you enter at the lower gates at the stadium.
Today is the first meeting of The No Place for Hate group. We will meet in the Game Room during first and second lunch. Feel free to bring your lunch so that we can get started early. Let's make some positive changes at Gardiner!!
Tomorrow we will be on a special schedule. We will have bus evacuation training for all students during advisory. The special schedule will flip flop period 1 and advisory. Tomorrow you will start the day in your period 1 class. After period 1 you will go to advisory for bus evacuation training. When advisory is over you’ll go to period 2. Tomorrow morning will start with period 1, then advisory, then period 2.
