You're Invited to Meet-the-Teacher Night and to Volunteer for our Upcoming Casino

Good evening, Grizzly Families!

A few important items were left out of this week's update, and to allow time to plan your availability, we are sharing them now.

NEW:  Meet the Teacher Night is coming soon!  We invite parents and guardians to join us on Thursday, September 25, from 6:30 to 8:00 p.m.  Note that we have a scheduled program for this event, and it is NOT a drop-in event.  Please leave enough time to find parking and seating in the gym for a 6:30 start.  It's your chance to hear an opening message from administration and get a sense of what this school year will bring.  After that, parents/guardians will visit their child's classes by following their child's schedule using a mini-timetable format.  Parents and guardians will have a chance to meet most of their child's teachers and hear what their child will experience in each specific class this year.  As the time is limited with each teacher and teachers are still getting to know your child, this evening is not intended for specific questions about your child.  Please note that we do not have a working elevator; if stairs are a concern, then guests may want to stay on the main floor during part of the event. We hope you can join us!

And here's a message from School Council:

Dear Annie Gale Families!

We need your help. Every 18 months Annie Gale is fortunate to participate in a Casino. This is our main fundraiser and it will earn roughly $80,000 for our school. This money goes directly towards things like field trips, library books, sports equipment, technology, and art supplies. We must provide enough parent volunteers for the casino to proceed. Our next Casino is January 5/6. We need you and your family members to join us so that we can earn these crucial funds. No experience is required and you get a free lunch!

Please join us! You can sign up here:  Annie Gale 2026 Casino Sign Up — Signup Sheet | SignUp.com
