THANK YOU, BEAR UNIVERSITY VOLUNTEERS! ❤️🖤🤍

A huge thank you to all the amazing individuals who came and shared your professions, talents, and time with our Garland Bears at Bear University yesterday!

Your willingness to inspire, teach, and connect with our students made the day so special. Because of you, our students were able to learn about exciting careers, new skills, and big possibilities for their future.

We also want to give a special thank you to all of our wonderful volunteers who helped make the day run smoothly. We couldn’t have done it without you!
Garland Bears, staff & PTA are grateful for each of you! 🐻✨

It's on!! The finals for the Book Battle Blitz are about to begin... It's the Book Dragons versus the Animaniacs! Good luck to both teams!

Today was the Book Battle Blitz. Students formed teams and read a selected list of books throughout the year. Now it is time for the teams to be tested on their knowledge and to compete to answer detailed questions about the books. Way a fun way to work together and enjoy a good book!

Huge shout out to the 8th Grade DLI students and their teacher, Ana Aliaga, from BRMS!!! They came and visited our 4th and 5th grade DLI students on Thursday to teach our students the benefits of being bilingual. They did an amazing job presenting and leading the students in fun activities. Our students had the opportunity to see older DLI students being bilingual and had a wonderful time with them. Thank you for stopping by!

Congratulations to our WONDERFUL Garland Instructional Coach, Lori Jacobson! Last night, she was awarded the district's "SEE" award for her excellent leadership in supporting teachers with their professional learning communities (PLCs). Lori is a tremendous asset and true friend to Garland Elementary!

Our PTA is hosting Zupa's night tomorrow in Logan. If you're in the area and hungry, please consider stopping by! Go, Bears!! Our Garland Families are the best!

There were sweet tears today when Mrs. Lish's class thanked and said goodbye to their BEMS Latinos in Action BFFs. They have served our Bears so well! Mrs. Lish made the sweetest "Difference Maker" gifts as a thank you. Shoutout to Suzy Lish and Nefi Ramirez for coordinating this weekly opportunity!

Tomorrow night at BRHS, 6-7 pm, come see the COOLEST DLI students perform at their cultural celebration! I caught the rehearsal today, and it was delightful!

Tri 2 school wide attendance winners.......Mrs. Bailey's second grade class!!
