UPCOMING EVENTS
 

GASA Classes Start Today 

GASA sessions begins this week, Sept 29th. Please remind your student to go to the MPR after school dismissal on their GASA class day. K & 1 students will be chaperoned to MPR by our hall monitors. You can find your GASA classes by going to your previous orders (here).

 

GASA Dismissal

  • Please be on time to pick up your student at 4:30 pm from the Glenwood gym. Parents/guardians must sign their child out before leaving.
  • There will be no school bus and no car line service after GASA. Students will be sent to the SAM program after GASA if you selected SAM during the registration.
  • Please email your child's homeroom teacher, Mrs.Ng (avis.ng@millburn.org), and GASA chairs (gasa@glenwoodpto.net) on any day your child will not attend GASA or if there is any change in dismissal. We need to make sure all students are accounted for and we appreciate your help in this matter.
