GISD is closely monitoring the weather and still plans to start school at our normal schedule Thursday. We understand that some in the community live on roads that may not be safe to drive on at this time. Remember, do not drive through water over the road; turn around, don’t drown. If you cannot travel safely, all we ask is that you call us in the morning and let us know that your child will not be present. Thank you and stay safe!
Parents, STAAR testing resumes tomorrow on both campuses. A snack and a bottle of water will be provided to all students testing. High school students; pease bring your charged school-issued Chromebook and your charger! We understand that some roads may not be safe to travel, if your student cannot make it to school please let your front office know and your student can make up their test on Friday.
Due to the oncoming severe weather, school has been canceled for today. We hope that all of our families stay safe with all of this rain and will see everyone tomorrow. STAAR testing will resume on Thursday.
Due to inclement weather we will be releasing students at 1pm today. Buses will run during this time.
STAAR Testing begins tomorrow at Gary ISD! We ask that all students get a good night's rest and come in ready to do their best! For high school students; please make sure you bring your school-issued Chromebook fully charged, and bring your charger just in case, we will provide the snacks! Remember; no outside food can be brought to the campus on testing days!

All four of Mrs. Ava's RLA classes did a March Madness bracket for their IXLs! They received points for each skill completed on their STAAR skill plan, and they were tallied up on Fridays. They all worked super hard but 5A came out on top by ONE point at the very last minute and won a pizza and movie party!
Congratulations to all of our February Students of the Month at Gary Elementary! Keep being great leaders!
