At the start of the year in math class, GMS 7th and 8th graders took part in a team-building activity to see which group could assemble a 100-piece puzzle the fastest. Winning groups earned a sticker! 🧩🏆





Fire safety is important at school and at home! 🚒
We’d like to share a few tips for families to prevent fires:
✅ Test smoke alarms monthly and replace the batteries regularly
✅ Create a fire escape plan and practice it with your family
✅ Keep matches and lighters out of reach of children
✅ Stay in the kitchen while cooking—especially when using the stovetop
Taking time to prepare helps protect the people who matter most!

Third grade student Josslyn Danielson recently added to her collection of school records when she tied the Grantsburg Elementary School record for the 800 meter run. The old record was established in 2023 by Zoe Marhenke with a time of 3:20. Danielson also holds the 2nd record with a time of 3:27. Congrats Jossy!

Second graders completed their Fairy Tales and Tall Tales unit and celebrated by having a “Flapjacks and Flannel” day. Students enjoyed COLOSSAL size pancakes like they read about in the story of Paul Bunyan. Although the pancakes weren't quite as big as in the story, they sure were delicious!




Our 5th grade students enjoyed Mr. Czeck's Friday dance off to the song "Shake it Off" by Taylor Swift. It was a great way to get up and moving! 🪩🎶

Being present at school is about more than academics—it’s about connections! 🤝
When students are in class each day, they have the chance to build strong relationships with their teachers and peers. These connections support learning, confidence, and a sense of belonging.
Every day in school is a new opportunity to grow, learn, and build friendships. Consistent attendance is the key to making it happen! 🌟
