Dear Joseph Giles Elementary Families,
As we work through the final month of the school year, we have many exciting activities and events planned for our students! Please keep an eye out for permission slips coming home soon for various class trips.
PTO End-of-Year BBQ Celebration!
Our wonderful PTO will be hosting an end-of-the-year BBQ celebration for all JGES families! Join us for hotdogs, drinks, and a bouncy castle.
- Date: Tuesday, June 25th
- Time: 6:00 PM - 7:30 PM
- We look forward to celebrating a great year with you all!
Afterschool Bathroom Access
With the warmer weather, we've noticed many families enjoying our playground after school hours. We understand the need for washroom access during this time. Please note that our after-school EXCEL program is not able to provide access to the school washrooms. However, school administration is usually available in the office until 3:30 PM. If an administrator is available, they may be able to provide supervised access to a washroom. We appreciate your understanding.
