Garden Club beautifies Gladstone!

 A special thank you to Mrs. Griffith and members of the Gladstone Green Club for their work in making Gladstone a more beautiful place for eveyone! On Satuday, Feb 4, they spent a few hours on campus planting flowers around trees in front of the school, weeding out the plants in front of the office, and planting tulips in the new flower bed under the mural. Green Club volunteers included: Matthew C and his mom, Zackary J. and his mom, Amita S. and her mom, Kayla M. and her mom, Luke W., Eddie K., and Gladstone Alumni Anthony C and his mom.


Where are the pick up zones for students after school.
 Please remember, the parking lot directly in front of Gladstone is reserved for staff only. After school, the parking lot is restricted to School Busses, Day Care Vans, and families of students with special needs.  At the 1:00, 2:00 and 2:50 dismissals, parents are welcome to park in the Shellman Ave parking lot or on Gladstone Street in front of the Kindergarten playground. Please remember that the Shellman parking lot is closed to incoming and oncoming traffic between 1:50 and 2:10pm. This allows us to have maximum safety for students riding the bus and students with special needs. If you ever have a question regarding where to park, feel free to email or call the school so we can help you choose an appropriate location.

Reading Tip to Help Kids Learn to ReadTop of Page

Research has proven that students must practice their reading skills over the summer in order to keep the skills they have learned. That means reading every day for at least 30 minutes. Don't fall into the slump make sure to read every day.


 How the Brain Reads

Work with your child to help them know that if they are struggling with learning to read, it is NOT a measure of how smart a student is. Difficulty in reading comes from where in a person's brain direction comes from. Review the Brain Research on How the Brain Reads presentation with your child to help them know this important fact.
