Stellar Success at Yesterday's Science Extravaganza!
A cosmic shoutout to all the brilliant students and interstellar parents who made yesterday's science fair the talk of the town! Your star-studded enthusiasm had us over the moon, and we couldn't be more thrilled about the galaxy of projects that lit up the event. The atmosphere was truly out of this world! It was great to see so many of our outstanding students participating and taking advantage of the extended learning opportunities, especially for the younger grades. To all those who supported, cleaned up, planned, prepped, and created, thank you! |
Re-Register 2024/25 School Year
Dear Gaglardi Academy Families Planning for the 2024-2025 school year is underway, and student re-registration is crucial. Student enrollment guides many decisions, from hiring staff to ordering furniture and erasers.
Yearly re-registration is mandatory under the Independent School Act and essential in navigating the unprecedented enrollment interest by new families. The school currently has 15 families in our wait pool for 2024-25. We require every currently enrolled family to indicate their registration intentions for next year using this linked Re-registration Form on or before March 1, 2024. If you need a paper copy of this form, please contact the office immediately, and one will be sent home with your family note-taker. If we don't hear back from your family about the re-enrollment of your children by the deadline, we will assume that you do not intend to continue with their enrollment next year. In such a scenario, we will consider the open seats for new families in our wait pool. To help families, you will receive regular prompts and reminders until the deadline. There will be a WAAG weekly reminder, website notices, website calendar posts, and a final direct email to every family three days before the deadline.

Hello, parents of our little ones from kindergarten to grade 2!
To ensure our students' well-being, our policy is that parents of K-2 students must walk their children to their classrooms in the morning and pick them up from the classrooms at the end of the day. We understand that your children are full of energy and ready to start their day and may want to run free, but we kindly ask for your assistance in prioritizing their safety by adhering to this policy. Let's work together to make our school a secure and safe environment.
