🎉💚 Celebrating Our 2026 Gretna Elementary PTO Scholarship Recipient! 💚🎉

We are incredibly proud to share that this year’s Gretna Schools Foundation scholarship—sponsored by the Gretna Elementary PTO—has been awarded to Sam Boeselager!

Sam is a proud Gretna Elementary School alum, and we couldn’t be more excited to cheer him on as he takes his next big step. This fall, Sam will be heading to Colorado State University to study construction management.

Please join us in congratulating Sam on this well‑deserved honor and wishing him all the success in the world as he begins his college journey. Way to go, Sam! 🎓✨

💚✨ What a *Wickedly Wonderful* Staff Appreciation Week at Gretna Elementary School! ✨💚

Our GES staff truly makes this school feel like the Emerald City, and this week we had a blast celebrating them with a little help from the Land of Oz. Here’s a look back at all the magic:

🟩 **Monday – Defying Gravity**
The Beanery truck swooped in to give our staff a well‑deserved caffeine boost. Nothing like coffee to help our team soar through the week.

🟩 **Tuesday – Emerald City Survival Kits**
Staff received empty snackle boxes and filled them up with all kinds of delicious goodies. A perfectly enchanted way to power through the day.

🟩 **Wednesday – Elphaba’s Enchanted Nacho Bar**
A nacho bar with all the fixings appeared like magic for staff lunch. No spells needed—just lots of happy plates.

🟩 **Thursday – Flying Monkey Banana Splits**
A banana split bar brought sweet smiles and a little midweek mischief.

🟩 **Friday – There’s No Place Like Home**
To wrap up the week, staff received take‑and‑bake pizzas to enjoy at home—because nothing beats ending the week with comfort and family.

💚✨ **To our incredible GES staff: thank you for everything you do to make our school a place where students feel supported, inspired, and loved. You truly are the heart of Gretna Elementary.**

And a huge thank‑you to the amazing parents who donated and helped make this week possible. Your generosity keeps our PTO flying high.

Here’s to a week full of magic—and to the people who make GES feel like home. 💚

Staff Appreciation Week is almost here, and we’re inviting all our little witches, wizards, and munchkins to join the fun by dressing up each day! Let’s fill the halls with Emerald City energy and show our amazing staff just how much we appreciate them.

Whether you go full Glinda sparkle, Elphaba green, or just add a touch of magic with fun colors and accessories, every bit of spirit helps make the week unforgettable.

💚✨ GES Parents — We Need YOU! ✨💚
As we look ahead to the 2026–27 school year, the Gretna Elementary PTO is excited to welcome a new group of leaders and helpers who want to make a real impact in our school community.

Many of our long‑time PTO members have students moving on from Gretna Elementary School, which means lots of board positions and volunteer roles are opening up. This is a wonderful chance to jump in, share your talents, and help keep our amazing GES community thriving.

📅 Join us on Tuesday, April 7 at 6:30 PM
Come to the PTO meeting to learn more about the open positions, ask questions, and see how you can get involved. Whether you’re curious, ready to volunteer, or just want to meet a great group of parents, we’d love to have you there.

The PTO is a fun, supportive team that works together to bring events, resources, and joy to our school — and we’d be thrilled to welcome new faces and fresh ideas.
