Mr. Sayward’s class took a creative approach to baking and reflection this week while reading Touching Spirit Bear. 🍪📖
Using cookies as a metaphor, scholars explored how the “ingredients” in our lives-our experiences, both good and challenging-can come together to shape something meaningful when we use them with purpose.
In this case, those ingredients also made for some pretty great cookies.

An afternoon with Zeus, Athena, and a whole lot of 6th grade insight ⚡📚
Scholars at Gloversville Middle School brought Greek mythology to life as they presented their character research in the library to a packed house.
From ethical research and works cited pages to confident public speaking, it was an impressive display of scholarship, voice, and growth.

From ethical research and works cited pages to confident public speaking, it was an impressive display of scholarship, voice, and growth.
During February, Gloversville Middle School scholars took a chance on a “Blind Date with a Book” in the GMS Library-choosing a wrapped mystery read, diving in, and rating their date.
One lucky reader was drawn from the entries and received a gift bag along with a book of their choice. 📚
Congratulations to our winner, Arabella Brooker!

At GHS, we wrapped up the week of February 23–27 with an overall attendance rate of 87.58%-and we’re building momentum!
An impressive 414 scholars achieved perfect attendance for the entire week. That’s 414 scholars showing up, staying committed, and making their learning a priority every single day.
From that group, three scholars were randomly selected to receive a prize in recognition of their dedication-but the real win is the commitment shown by all 414.
Let’s keep pushing forward and aim even higher next week. Every day matters. Every class counts. Let’s be there

✨ Read Across America Day at GESD ✨📚

From classrooms filled with guest readers to scholars fully locked into their books, it was a great reminder of how powerful reading can be. 📖💛
Take a look at some highlights from today’s celebrations!

❤️🤍 Living the GESD Way: Builders Club in Action! ❤️🤍
Our Builders Club, led by Mr. Heroth, isn’t just about volunteering-it’s about embodying the GESD mentality of helping others and giving back to our community.
In January and February, some of our middle school scholars rolled up their sleeves at local food pantry events, supporting neighbors and showing that even small acts of service make a big impact. Their teamwork, care, and dedication reflect the heart of our Gloversville community.
