🏐 Battler of the Week: Layla Cronin!🏐 Layla was a force at the net this week, finishing with 42 kills and 6 blocks. Her match-winning block in the fifth set against Faith sealed Tuesday’s win! She also stepped into a new position at Saturday’s tournament and picked it up with ease. Layla’s hard work, competitive spirit, and willingness to do whatever the team needs make her a true Battler. Congratulations, Layla! ❤️🤍🖤 #BattlerOfTheWeek #GettysburgBattlers #BattlerVolleyball #BattlerPride

Hello Preschool parents. A reminder that preschool does not have school this Friday, September 25th. As noted in the letter sent home a few weeks back, we will be taking part in the homecoming day parade and in order to ensure both sections of preschool receive the same amount of sessions, there will be no school. Please drop your child off at the front entrance of the school by 1 this Friday dressed in their 90s gear. The parade starts at 1:30 and students are to be picked up at Schatz Electric when their class is done walking in the parade. They can finish watching the remainder of the parade with their parents/guardians if they wish. Thank you!

All of the elementary students wanted Mr. Cordell to wear THEIR color for class wars, so Mr. Cordell wore ALL of their colors. He said, "he didn't want anyone to feel left out." Thank you to Mr. Cordell for taking care of our building and our hearts!

The Elementary Student Council stayed after school today to create obstacle courses and decorate the playground with positive messages! They are so excited for students to arrive tomorrow to play!
