Kelly Fortson-GT Coordinator at MES
1st 9 Weeks
Things to Know:
GT Folder: Please remind your child to that he/she should keep up with the Purple GT folder so that it can be brought to GT every week.
Snacks: We will try to have a snack each day in the GT classroom. Please send in snack donations, which include pretzels, goldfish, Cheez-its, etc. (anything dry and as least messy as possible )
Remind: If you have not already, make sure you sign up for Remind so you receive text messages regarding the happenings in the GT classroom (look for the PURPLE sheet in the folder).
I am looking forward to a great year in the GT Resource classroom. Please feel free to always contact me with any questions or concerns.
