Gibbons Middle School
GMS New School Year - Message
Welcome to the 2023-2024 school year!
Dear GMS School Community,
Our recent summer annual Open Door Day events have been very successful and exceptionally well attended. Meeting our new students and families always makes the tedious work of building the scheduling matrix satisfying as students come back into the classrooms and corridors and breathe life into the building again.
I’m pleased to introduce our new-to-Gibbons and returning staff to our school community.
New to Gibbons Middle School
Craig Robbins, Band
Lauren Giguere, 7th grade Science
Xi Li, Mandarin
Taylor Wentworth- Special Education
Kaila Therrien- Speech Language Pathologist
Transitioning/returning:
Lisa Martin Math tutor
John Zywien - math tutor
Rich Lord- 8th grade Purple team math teacher
Key Nahid- paraeducator
Eric Knight- part time Spanish teacher and paraeducator
Patti Lessard- returning Spanish teacher
I am happy to share that our district is introducing a new communication platform, ParentSquare, This is a social media style application that provides a web-based portal and a mobile phone app. The user-friendly interface consolidates postings from our various schools and offices in one place, lets you configure your notification preferences, and provides two-way communication and language translation.
Our custodial and maintenance teams have done incredible work over the course of the summer to get our school ready for the 2023-2024 school year and the facility looks fantastic. Kudos to the crew for their hard work. The first day of school for students is Wednesday, August 30. Please review this link to review important information regarding school routines and logistics at Gibbons Middle School.
We are ready and excited for a new school year and will do everything possible to make it the best experience for all of our students and families.
See you soon!
Sincerely,
Mr. Foley and Ms. Stewart.
