Congratulations kindergarten graduates! 🎓 🦅





#WeAreGGS


Thanks to the generous donations from our read-a-thon, here are some of the new books we've purchased for the library! 📚


Third Grade Market Day will take place on Tuesday, May 21st from 8:30-10:30 a.m.
The Third Grade class will be selling handmade goods and services to raise money for
charity. The profit from the Market Day Event will be given to the
Champaign County Humane Society. Gifford Grade School students can shop the Market Day Event during their designated class time. All items and services are $1 or less--please bring no more than $4. Why? Third grade is wrapping up their Economy Unit. This Market Day Event will give them hands-on experience! They will also be practicing their money counting skills and business etiquette.
