Thank you!
Next week (May 4–8), we’re excited to celebrate the incredible staff of Gilbert School and we truly couldn’t ask for a better team.
Every day, our teachers and support staff show up for students in ways big and small. Bringing patience, humor, consistency, and so much care into our building. It’s those everyday moments that make Gilbert such a special place to learn and grow.
We know our families and community see that too, and if you’d like to share a note of appreciation, we’d love to pass that along. You can email Principal Hartill (erin.hartill@augustaschools.org) or send in a handwritten note, both mean so much to our staff, and we’ll be sure they get delivered!
Thank you for helping us celebrate the people who make Gilbert, Gilbert.
Tuesday May 5th from 6-7 PM
6th grade students must arrive by 4:45pm
5th Grade students must arrive by 5:30pm
