Recess time just got a whole lot more exciting! 🏆 The 4th and 5th graders have been battling it out on the kickball field, and while the 5th graders usually dominate, the 4th grade got a little surprise help recently! 💪
Special shout-out to some very competitive good sports—Dr. Minney, Mr. Price, and Mr. Fox—who jumped in to help the 4th graders give the 5th grade a run for their money! And a big thank you to Mrs. Chesser for being an awesome referee and keeping everyone in line!👏⚽ #GoGilmer

🐾GCES Wildcats: Week At-A-Glance🐾
On September 18, 2024, Mrs. Shiflet's third-grade writing classes had a special virtual visit from some amazing guests! 🎉 Lisa Collum, CEO and Author of Top Score Writing, and Katie Jackson-Szabo, Curriculum Director of Top Score Writing, joined each class via Zoom. These two inspiring educators are featured in the instructional videos our students watch daily as part of their Top Score lessons. ✏️
This incredible opportunity came about because Mrs. Shiflet reached out to Mrs. Collum to share how much she loves the Top Score program and how engaged the students are with the videos. Mrs. Collum didn’t just reply—she suggested a Zoom call to chat with the students! They discussed the curriculum and even took time to answer questions.
A huge thank you to Mrs. Shiflet for making this unforgettable learning experience possible for her third graders! 🌟👏 #GoGilmer
