Title I Parent Survey
In an effort to improve system practices, Guntersville Elementary School is conducting a Title I Parent Survey. We value your opinion and ask that you take the time to complete this survey.
In order to complete the survey, please go to:
http://www.advanc-ed.org/
Please be assured that your responses to this survey will be anonymous. Your honest opinion is appreciated.
Paper copies will be available in the GES office should you prefer to respond in that manner.
Thank you for your time and attention to this matter.
Did you miss picture day?
We will have a MAKE-UP PICTURE DAY
later in October. Stay tuned for a date!
These will just be "shoulders up" shots.
Smile!
Car Line Reminders
GES PARENTS/GUARDIANS,
Just a few reminders :
1. HAVE ALL STUDENTS LOAD (AND UNLOAD) ON THE PASSENGER SIDE OF THE CAR. (This helps with their safety and our ability to make sure the area is clear before we allow cars to move.)
2. PLEASE DISPLAY YOUR HANG TAGS ON YOUR REAR VIEW MIRROR UNTIL YOUR CHILD LOADS AND THEN TAKE IT DOWN SO WE WILL KNOW THAT YOUR CHILD IS IN YOUR VEHICLE.
3. FINALLY, PLEASE PAY ATTENTION TO THOSE DIRECTING TRAFFIC. MAKE SURE YOU PULL ALL THE WAY TO THE WHITE LINE IF YOU ARE THE FRONT CAR IN EACH LINE. (This allows us to load the maximum number of students at one time and still leaves a pedestrian lane for your students talk through the first row of cars and get to the second row of cars safely.)
Thanks in advance for your help with these items and we are looking forward to seeing your children every morning at GES!
Find the good every day, this is the WILDCAT WAY!

It is a great way to keep up with all the great things happening here!
GES Reminders...
* Please have your student practice buckling and unbuckling & opening and closing car doors so that they can LOAD and UNLOAD on the passenger side. We discourage parents from getting out of the car during carline.
* Our lunchroom received a grant to provide "cost-free" breakfast for all students. We encourage all students to go to breakfast now! Students must be at school before the bell rings to visit breakfast.
* Remember that to change transportation plans in ANY way, we must have your changes in writing. We cannot change transportation over the phone for safety reasons.
* Please check your student's backpack and home folder every night. We have important information coming home regularly.
In the event of weather related school closings or delays, we will make calls through our automated phone system, update websites and social media, and alert local news and radio. Please keep in mind that we are Guntersville City Schools and our plans are not always the same as the county system.
GES Students Thank Our Community
In remembrance of 911, our students spent the week thanking our local community helpers for their dedication to Guntersville!
We are so proud of our boys and girls for thinking of others. It's the Wildcat Way!

As some of you may be aware, the Alabama State Board of Education voted over the summer to discontinue the use of the ACT Aspire to serve as the summative standardized test for grades 3-8 in our state.
Based on legal liability and other safety concerns, Guntersville City Schools will no longer authorize the delivery or pick up of any student to or from a business address in our school district, effective Monday, August 14th.
Guntersville City Schools Board of Education has approved new procedures and provisions for student drug testing at both Guntersville Middle School and Guntersville High School.
