BUS UPDATE: We are still waiting on Bus 212 and Bus 503 to arrive. Students who ride these 2 buses are still at GES. There is no issue that we are aware of. The students are, of course, in good hands with our staff!

Please be patient with our bus drivers over the next few days as they not only learn their bus routes, but they also fight the traffic out in our area! We will notify you if there are any issues, but please know that the bus runs may be later than usual here at the beginning of the school year. Thank you!

IMPORTANT!! Especially at the beginning of the school year, we have a lot of Parent Pick-Up cars. If you arrive at our property, and both lanes of Parent Pick-Up are full, please do NOT enter our property! Cars will be dismissed to begin rounding the building around 3:10. That should clear plenty of space for you to return and get in line.
It is very important that you do not block our entrance for buses or the main road in any capacity!
Thank you for your cooperation!

IMPORTANT: Starting this year, the tardy bell at GES will ring at 8:35am!! Students must be IN THEIR CLASSROOMS (not just in the building) to avoid being marked tardy. Parent Drop-Off will be 8:10am-8:35am. After 8:35am, you must sign-in your student in the office. It is highly suggested to make sure your student arrives no later than 8:30am to grab breakfast and be in their classrooms on time.
