Friday mornings are better at the Big G! 🥁☀️

Mr. Fenton starts Fridays with a drum session for any staff member who want to join…This morning’s session had a little Dolly Parton flair. 🎶🥁😂

Small groups = big learning! 💕📚

We are so thankful for our amazing educational assistants who work with students every day, helping them learn, grow, and build confidence. They bring patience, encouragement, and a little fun to every group!

We appreciate all the love and hard work you pour into our students. Your impact does not go unnoticed! 🫶🏽✨

Tomorrow is a Staff Development Day for our Glenellen team. Our teachers and staff will spend the day learning and collaborating.

Students do not report to school tomorrow.

We’ll see our tortoises back at The Big G on Thursday, ready for another great day of learning! 🐢

Tomorrow, we’re celebrating both the colors black and white as we continue our Kindergarten Color Days! 🎨

All Glenellen students and staff are invited to wear BLACK, WHITE, or both to help our kindergarteners learn, recognize, and celebrate their color words! 🖤🤍

Let’s fill Glenellen with black and white and make learning colorful! 🐢✨

❤️ PAINT IT RED! ❤️

A HUGE thank you to our Partners in Education, the APSU Men’s Basketball Team, for spending time with our kindergarten Tortoises for Paint It Red Day! 🏀❤️

Our little Tortoises had the BEST time coloring, learning, playing, and hanging out with some pretty awesome basketball players! And judging by these pictures, they may have found a few new fans along the way! 😂🏀

We are so grateful for our Partners in Education who continue to show up for our students and make their school experience even more special. We loved having them with us!

Go Govs! ❤️🏀🐢
