Gale Elementary School

The countdown is on, Tiger Fam! 😁 We are gearing up for another amazing year! We would like to welcome all our "New to Gale" families! We're so excited to have you!

One of the BEST ways to ease into a new school year is to visit your children's teacher(s) and see the classroom(s) before the first day! So, make sure your calendars are marked for MEET THE TEACHER NIGHT & ICE CREAM SOCIAL on Tuesday evening, August 4. Stop in anytime between 5:30 - 7:00 pm. (Give yourselves enough time to see classrooms BEFORE the doors close at 7:00.) This is for our Kinder- 6th grade students.

📸When you arrive, visit your classrooms first! Meet your teacher(s), drop off classroom supplies, find your new desk and cubby and take LOTS OF PICTURES in your new room!

🍦Next, make your way toward the cafeteria and celebrate by grabbing some ice cream and maybe purchase a new school shirt through our PTC !

The FIRST DAY OF SCHOOL is Thursday, August 6th! The first bell will ring at 7:40am. Feel free to hang out on the playground with your kiddo(s)until the bell rings! To begin fostering their independence right away, we say goodbye to families at the door to begin our newest adventures. ☺️

If you have any questions, let us know! See you Tuesday night!

Good morning, Tiger Families! We hope you're enjoying your summer! ☀️

If you've stepped into a Target, Walmart or Dollar Tree lately, you probably noticed that the school supplies are starting to hit the shelves. That's my yearly sign to repost supply lists for all of our K-6 classrooms in case 'life happened' to the one that was sent home at the end of last year! 😉. So here you go, in case you need it! We really do appreciate all the donations! Here is a list of our K-6 teachers! Swipe to find your child's teacher's list!

We hope to see everyone at our Meet the Teacher Night on Tuesday, August 4, between 5:30-7:00pm. In addition to getting to meet your teacher and see your classroom, this is a great and the most convenient night to bring supplies, if you're able!

Hello Tiger Families, Friends and Community! We are coming to you with the lofty request of helping us find the PERFECT 3rd grade teacher for our school!

We are specifically seeking someone who is strong in Tier 1 instruction, is an excellent problem solver and both values and enjoys collaboration.

This person should appreciate the unique "in between" place that 3rd graders live...no longer primary students, but barely intermediate. This person should be prepared to grow and nurture the entire child as growing kids with character is as important as building strong academics and successful students.

Interested applicants can contact Ms. Osollo with any questions. The job is currently posted on the TUSD website and can be found by searching Job # 11131. Don't delay in completing an application.

If you know someone who might be interested, please share this post with them. Thank you in advance for helping us find our perfect fit!
