It's that time of year again to stock up on all your reading needs. Garrison-Pilcher's annual Book Fair is coming to town. This year we have the ability to share online shopping with everyone. This helps our school in earning points to get FREE books. Of course with the Book Fair, we also need super volunteers to make it happen. The link below is for you to shop with us and to sign up to volunteer. We hope if you can you will consider helping out. https://bookfairs.scholastic.com/bf/garrisonpilcherelemschool

Art After School is a studio class where students get hands-on art making instruction. Students will use various materials such as watercolor, ceramics and mixed media. Classes are offered for elementary students Tuesdays (grades K - 2 ONLY) and Thursdays (grades 3 - 4 ONLY). Monthly tuition is $35 and limited to 20 students per day.

Art classes will begin September 3. Due to fall and spring breaks, two free makeup days will be offered in December and one in May. All materials for the class are provided. Please be aware that some days students will be working with paint, oil pastels, and clay.

Tuition must be paid at time of registration and at the last class of each month for the following month for students to continue classes. Should your student have an unpaid balance, they will not be able to continue classes. If you have questions, please contact Ms. Young at (229) 225-5050 ext. 126 or cyoung@tcjackets.net.

The deadline to register is August 27. Click on link below for more information!
