GBE PTA 09.16.2022


Hey GBE Fam! 

We got lots planned. Check out the 9 points below!


The Health Office Needs Volunteers

GBE's Health Office will be conducting vision and hearing screenings on September 27th (for 3rd grade and new students to the county) and October 4th (Kindergarten). The school health office has requested volunteers to help make the day a success. Volunteers should arrive 15 minutes prior to their volunteer time for a quick training.

Moe's Taco Kit Fundraiser on September 29 

Tired of figuring out what to make for dinner? We got you... on September 29th, that is. Pre-order a taco kit now using this link: https://form.jotform.com/212775835431055 (important note: if the link does not work by directly clicking on it, please copy/paste it into a new tab in your browser). Orders must be placed by 6pm on September 27 and will be available for pick up at GBE from 5-530PM on September 29. 20% of the proceeds from each taco kit will go to the PTA! 


Join a PTA Committee!

Want to volunteer with us? We have just the thing for you! We're looking to stand up committees that will help us accomplish all the fun and awesome programming we have in mind this year. We, an executive board of 6, cannot do it alone. Sign up here: https://forms.gle/5G5RJ4ojAus18ibo6 (important note: if the link does not work by directly clicking on it, please copy/paste it into a new tab in your browser). 


Wanted -  Lego Robotics and

Chess Club Coaches

We've gotten so much interest for Lego Robotics teams and Chess Club but we don't have enough volunteer coaches to meet the demand. Help us make this a reality for the kids! If interested, please email Patrick Foster, VP of Programming, at programs@gbepta.org


Date Change - Spirit Day at

Dogfish Head Alehouse on Oct 12

Spirit Day Fundraiser at Dogfish Head Alehouse is now on Wednesday, October 12 (not October 25). Per the restaurant's policy, we are required to have volunteers physically represent GBE at the restaurant in the Greenbriar Plaza from 12-8PM in order for the PTA to receive a percentage of the proceeds. Please sign up to volunteer here: https://www.signupgenius.com/go/5080848aca728a5fe3-spirit (important note: if the link does not work by directly clicking on it, please copy/paste it into a new tab in your browser). 


Start Saving Your Gently Used Clothes For Us!

We're planning on doing a clothing drive this fall and will be in need of any gently used clothing you and your family no longer wear. Our aim is to sell the clothing at extremely discounted prices (similar to "pay what you can") and we will give 100% of the proceeds to our school's counselors and Family Liaison to distribute as seen fit to fellow GBE families that are in need.


Interested in Joining Boy Scouts?

Check out Cub Scout Pack 1863, which serves the GBE community. Reach out to the Cubmaster (cubmaster@pack1863.com) or check out their website www.pack1863.com (important note: if the link does not work by directly clicking on it, please copy/paste it into a new tab in your browser).
