Parents,

Our Hector P. Garcia "Toro Store" is now open. Hurry because it's only open for 2 weeks! Shirts ordered can be worn every Friday on Spirit Fridays and our sweaters/sweatshirts can be worn at any time over their uniform shirts. A percentage of the sales will go right back to the campus to help purchase student incentives.

Padres,

Ya está abierta nuestra "Tienda Toro" de la escuela Hector P. Garcia. ¡Dense prisa, ya que solo estará abierta durante dos semanas! Las camisetas que compren podrán usarse todos los viernes (días de espíritu escolar), y nuestras sudaderas se pueden usar en cualquier momento sobre las camisas del uniforme. Un porcentaje de las ventas se destinará directamente a la escuela para ayudar a comprar incentivos para los estudiantes. Hagan clic en el siguiente enlace:

You may be thinking, “Why should I fill out the Free and Reduced Price Meals application?” You could be eligible for many great benefits and resources for your child. Grand Prairie ISD would like to dispel another myth about free and reduced-price meals. Hear what GPISD students have to say about the Free and Reduced Price meal application.

🚨 As a reminder, this application must be renewed every school year, or benefits will stop after 30 days of the school year. Also, students not participating in the free and reduced-price meal program will be required to pay for meals.�
We encourage all GPISD families to submit an application even if you think you may not qualify. To apply now and/or check the status of your application, visit http://www.gpisd.org/freemeals. If you have any questions 🙋‍♀️, please don’t hesitate to contact the Child Nutrition Department at (972) 343-4410.

Congratulations to our very own teachers, Ms. Garcia, Ms. Torres, Ms. Herrera and Ms. Perez for receiving the Teacher Incentive Allotment distinction! We are so proud of all of your hard work in the classroom ⭐️❤️

This afternoon, Grand Prairie ISD hosted the Teacher Incentive Allotment Reception for the new cohort of teachers who earned this distinction. This year, across 30 campuses, 153 teachers earned a TIA distinction. The total amount earned by this group was just over $1.7 million 💰! Forty teachers in this group received the TIA distinction previously and moved up to a higher level of recognition this year 👏 🎉 🙌. Please join GPISD in congratulating all of these teachers on this well-deserved recognition!
