Every week, we celebrate students who exemplify the Gator Way! These students are nominated by staff.

🐊 Gators are KIND to everyone.
🐊 Gators are RESPECTFUL every day.
🐊 Gators are RESPONSIBLE in every way.

Let’s show appreciation for our gators that embody these values and make Glenhope a better place!

Thank you to our AMAZING PTA for providing staff a delicious dinner before both curriculum nights. You guys go above and beyond to take care of us.

After dinner, we did a little this or that, Glenhope edition. Watch to learn more about our Glenhope staff and what they prefer. 💚🐊

We also want to send a big thank you for all the families that came out last night to get the inside scoop on everything we do to make our gators successful! If you couldn’t make it, all slide decks will be shared in this upcoming week’s newsletter.

Join us for GHES Curriculum Night Thursday to learn all about the things we learn daily.

Our Gifted and Talented teacher will also be presenting from 6-630 and 630-7.

Our special education teachers and dyslexia teachers will be present for questions. Stop by and visit them!

We'd like to make Curriculum Night as smooth as possible. If you know you will be coming to campus for the house presentation at 5:45, please fill out this form. You will not need a fast pass if you plan to attend after 6:00pm.

You will still be able to check in at the kiosk if you don't get it turned in on time, but it may be slower than getting your fast pass.

We are incredibly grateful for our dedicated staff whose continuous hard work, guidance, and passion have poured so much love into our school. Thank you, staff, for giving every single Gator exactly what they need!

The night before our Gators return…🌙

The building has been quiet. The halls have been still. Classrooms have been empty, yet tomorrow, our Glenhope family comes back together. 💙💚

Tomorrow is the beginning of a new chapter… a fresh start, a new year, and another opportunity to pour into the lives of our students and into one another.

To our teachers and staff: as you walk through those doors tomorrow, remember you are part of something bigger than a school year. You are part of a team. A family. A place where people believe in each other and believe in the incredible things our students can become.

Because this year, we aren’t just teaching lessons. We’re building confidence, character, courage, kindness, givers, and dreamers. 💚❤️💙🖤 Four Houses, One Family!

Welcome back, GHES. We’ve been waiting for you. 💚💚
