Trunk or Treat Update

Thank you so much to everyone who signed up to help with this year’s Trunk or Treat. We truly appreciate your time, creativity, and enthusiasm in supporting our students and families.

Unfortunately, due to low participation, we’ve made the difficult decision to cancel this year’s event. We know this news is disappointing, and we want to extend our sincere thanks to all who volunteered to make it special.

Your ongoing support means so much—our school community thrives because of amazing parents like you.

🦅💚Spirit Wear orders have started going home with students! If you haven’t received yours yet, don’t worry- some items are still on order and are expected to arrive mid to late October. Thank you for your patience and for showing your school spirit! 💚🦅

We need your help to build an outdoor classroom at general wayne!

The GWES community previously raised a sum of money to be used toward creating an outdoor learning space for the students at General Wayne. This project was paused for several years and our goal is to get the ball rolling again!

We are seeking parents/teachers/members of GWES community who are excited to assist with the planning and coordination of this project so that the earmarked funds can be used for their intended purpose.

Do you have a background or specific interest in outdoor learning spaces, landscape design, architecture, playground building/design, grant writing, zoning requirements, technology utilization?

Please consider joining the committee as we work to move this project forward!

DIRECTORY APP

Parents love the added convenience of accessing the directory from the Membership Toolkit App. The app includes your directory and calendar —and links to your site through their internet browser.

The app is available free in the Apple Store and in Google Play. Download it one time for all of the organizations that you are affiliated with that are using Membership Toolkit. If you belong to 4 organizations that are using Membership Toolkit, when you log in to the app you will see all four organizations presented and you can toggle between organizations.
