Happy Sunday Garvy!
It is the last week of school and what a whirlwind year it has been. On behalf of the Garvy School Staff, thank you for all your support and collaboration this school year. I will resume our Sunday Snapshots in August. Enjoy your summer and see you in the fall!
Foam Party
The Garvy Culture and Climate team is hosting our annual End of the Year Foam party. Students in grades K-5 will participate on Tuesday, June 4th in the afternoon. This event is graciously sponsored by the Garvy PTA. Please have your students bring a change of clothes and a towel. If they did not turn in a permission form, they will not allowed to participate.
Spotlight Lunch
Congratulations to our Garvy Spotlight Skill Nominees this quarter for the Spotlight Skills of Honesty, Creativity, Integrity, and Inclusivity. As a reminder those students and an adult are invited to attend a lunch with Mrs. Bester and the other nominees on Wednesday, June 5, 2024 at 1pm. A reminder certificate was sent home with your child on Friday. We look forward to celebrating the end of the quarter and our student's achievements. Please note: Unfortunately, due to the lack of sufficient space, if there is inclement weather, this event will be cancelled.
Kindergarten Celebration
Congratulations, our Kindergarteners are moving on to the 1st grade. We are hosting a special celebration on Wednesday, June 5th on the turf. Kindergarten parents please join us! Please note: If there is inclement weather, the event will have to move indoors to the MPR, which has limited space.

Summer Reading Challenge
To be a summer reader, Kindergarten through 8th graders must read 10 books during their summer vacation. Books for local library programs are also acceptable and books over 150 pages may count for two books. After reading the books, students should have their parents visit RepStephens.com and click “Oceans of Possibilities Summer Reading Program.” There, they can list how many books the student has read over the summer. Parents and students can also drop off or mail a paper form at Rep. Stephens’ District Office.
All participants who read 10 books will receive a voucher for two tickets to see the Chicago Wolves at the Allstate Arena during the 2024-25 Season.
Copies of the Summer Reading Challenges and a bookmark was sent home with our scholars.
