A Message from Rick Riley-Benoit

Hello GNGMS Families!

  • After School Supervision
    • If after school activities are taking place, students must be supervised at all times by Middle School staff during school activities. Students who stay after school can do so only with prior parental approval and supervision of a staff member. Students need to make prior arrangements to stay after school with a teacher or other adult staff members. Since coaches can only supervise their own team members, students can not stay to watch sports practices. Students may not bring a friend to an after school activity to wait for them. Home games typically start at 3:30 P.M. Students who wish to cheer on our teams are welcome, but must go home first and return later for the game. Students may not leave the building and re-enter during a sporting event.
  • Message from NJHS
    • GNGMS National Junior Honor Society will be starting the annual toy drive. This will run from November 20th until December 12th. Please send in any new toys or games that you would be willing to donate. As done in the past, the toy donations will be delivered to the Gray Community Cares group for distribution. Each classroom has a box to receive donations for each of the drives. Please help us make a difference in our community by donating what you can for the toy drive. Thank you and best wishes for the holiday season from NJHS.
  • Message from PE
  • The middle school PE department is looking for spare sneakers that are gently used for students to borrow. We are looking for a variety of sizes. If you have an extra pair please send them into Mrs. Delaney or Mr. Welch. Thank you!
