Dear Goshen Creek Elementary Family,

I want to extend my heartfelt thanks to all of you for a successful October! As we look forward to falling into November together, I am so grateful for your amazing support with our Big Kahuna Fundraiser, our Unity Days, Red Ribbon Week, and our PTA Boo Bash! We appreciate your continued partnership in helping grow a culture of students loving to read and apply math in the world around us.

Our Goshen Creek Elementary Boo Bash was a huge success! We want to give our Goshen Creek Elementary PTA a huge shoutout for all the many things they do, especially always going above and beyond to ensure the Boo Bash was an unforgettable memory for all of our Goshen Family.

Big Kahuna Pick-up is taking place today on campus between the times of 11:00 AM - 4:00 PM in the GCES gym. As a friendly reminder, we ask that there are no student sign-outs past 2:45 PM, as we will be in the midst of dismissal procedures to ensure safety for all. We appreciate your support and compliance in helping to maintain these expectations.

We truly appreciate your attention to detail and commitment to ensuring each event was a success for our students. Please take a few minutes to read through the Principal's Update for November to make sure . At school, we will be focusing on gratitude and all the blessings in our lives. Our home connection project will include implementing a gratitude jar at home as well, and we cannot wait to see the impact.

Thank you so much for your continued support and for sharing your children with us at Goshen Creek Elementary.
Together, we are making a difference in the world around us and letting out light shine for all to see!

Thank you once again for your support!

Warm regards,
Wendy Ashley
Goshen Creek Elementary Principal
