Dear GCS Grade 6 Family,

We’ve finished the first quarter!  

We are thankful that we have been able to have one full quarter of in-person learning.  Thank you for your work at home this quarter to ensure your child’s success.

Costumes for the Christmas Presentation-November 16 

All students in grades 1-6 will need some type of clothing to complete their costume for filming. The grade six class will be dressed as the shoppers at the mall. Your child will need a dark pant, a red, white or green top and dark shoes. If you have extra things such as Christmas clothing accessories like hats, ties, socks, etc. please bring them as well.  Please have your child bring these items to school for November 16. Please label each item so it can be returned to you. If you have any questions or concerns please email jwilting@gcspei.ca. Thanks!

My School Management

 Each family has access to GCS’s online school management system (MSM) at gcs.myschoolmanagement.com.  Logging into it will allow parents to view upcoming assignments, tuition balances, student grades (in select courses in elementary), and view quarterly report cards this year.  If you do not know your login information, you can visit the previous link and click “having problems logging in”, enter your email address, and the system will send you instructions on resetting your password; this will work even if you have not logged into MSM before.  Report cards will be published ONLY in My School Management this year, so you must log in to your account in order to view them.   We suggest that you ensure that you can log in well before the report card day on November 19.  If you have any login problems, please email Mr. Ellis (jellis@gcspei.ca) for more assistance.
