Opportunities
Holiday Presents for GRE Families
We have been asked to adopt two of our GRE families for the holidays and provide gifts for our students and their siblings. There are two ways to participate if you are interested. First, you can make a cash donation and Libby will go buy and wrap their gifts. The second option is to purchase and wrap the gift on your own and return it to Libby. There will be ornaments hanging in the lounge that will have the specific age/gender/gift idea for each child. You can give the wrapped gift to Libby by December 11th. Please attach the ornament to the gift. Thank you for helping our GRE families!
Stipend for Communicating GRE's Celebrations
Jenny is looking for someone to help share the great things that are happening at Gold Rush with the larger community. The role would involve sharing information on Facebook, twitter, our website and different community publications weekly and creating and distributing flyers that showcase our great work. If you are interested in this opportunity please let Jenny know.
District Reorganization
District Administration further defined their reorganization efforts this week. The District will be shifting Directors to regions and they will support schools K-12 versus levels (elementary, middle and high school). The Parker Area will be supported by Carrie Stevenson. Individuals from other departments (HR, World Class Ed and PD) will also be shifting to regions. These changes were made to streamline support to schools. These changes will not impact you directly, but I wanted you to be in the know. Please let me know if you have any other questions.
Happy Birthday
Gretchen Immen - November 18th
