On September 24th, the Gretna Public School District Board of Education was honored with the prestigious President’s Board Award, presented by the Nebraska Association of School Boards. This recognition celebrates the Board’s dedication to excellence in leadership and their ongoing commitment to professional development. Board members Greg Beach, Mark Hauptman, Rick Hollendieck, Kyle Janssen, Dawn Stock, and Blake Turpen were acknowledged for their exceptional efforts.

Thomas Elementary will begin using Artsonia (www.artsonia.com), an online student art museum, to create digital portfolios of students’ artworks. Not only can you view your child’s artwork all year, but you may also purchase any of your child’s artwork that is in the gallery and Thomas receives 20% of the profit with each order. Please look for your child's Artsonia log-in sheet to come home soon in his/her folder. **A quick note: If your child has Mrs. Hicks, they are split into a different 3rd grade class for specials, so you will see their work under a different teacher's name at the top of the form!
Any questions can be directed to Mr. Naylor! (mnaylor@gpsne.org)
