Week of Dec. 9th: 4th-6th Grade Bulldogs of the Week
Thank you so much to the students, school staff, and community members who helped set up for last night's concert. It looked absolutely wonderful!
The staff at GEMS had a wonderful lunch of amazing soups and delicious rolls provided by the PTO and other community members. Beautiful desserts were made by Carisa's Cake Company. The drawing for Mammoth Bucks created a buzz of excitement as denominations of $25 to $100 were presented to winners. We felt so appreciated and enjoyed each other's company! Thank you so much for spoiling us today!

This alert will be received by all parent-guardians and staff of the Mountain View School District schools. Please spread the word, set a reminder in your phone, and check that you receive the alert. If you do not receive the alert, contact your school office to update your Skyward contact information.
For upcoming dress-up days, students are not allowed to wear face paint. Hats are welcome as long as they're school-appropriate and don't cause distractions. Please help your child(ren) get ready at home. Thank you!
This week, 96% of GEMS students were present, marking the best attendance since the second week of school. Let's aim to finish 2024 with another strong week of attendance!
Our GEMS and GHS staff came together to rotate through 5 medical-training stations. They learned about AED use, Narcan administration, Epinephrine injections, LifeVac anti-choking devices, recognizing concussions, and a brief physiology about diabetes Type 1.
We had 82 staff members participate, plus 2 staff members who presented. Thank you to all who attended, and thank you to our presenters for making this a great success!

Winter snow globes on the tree
Take a look and come and see!
The tree decorations were made in STEAM class with Mrs. Johns by the elementary students and donated to the Grangeville Senior Center. At GEMS we love our Senior Citizens!
Merry Christmas!
The GEMS Community Involvement Committee reached out to the Veterans Center and provided decorations for a Christmas tree. The decorations were made in the STEAM class with Mrs. Johns and students and teachers delivered and decorated the trees. GEMS Bulldogs love our Vets and we love serving the community in this way.
Great job on the Food Drive! Our final count at GEMS was 874 items! Thank you to everyone for helping us make this a great event for our school and our community! Hopefully, our students' generosity will bless many people and families.
Let's have a BLUE & WHITE OUT at GEMS today! Bulldog Pride! (And bring canned or boxed food to donate to the food bank!)
