Hello GH Families,

A quick reminder that our December Mustang Parent Group meeting is this Tuesday from 6–7pm in the GHES cafeteria. Join us in-person or virtually, whatever works best for your family. Kids are always welcome!

MPG is a space for every GH family! Whether you're brand new, come once in a while, or haven’t made it yet, there’s a place for you here. And there are lots of ways to support our school through your time, donations, sharing ideas, or simply showing up to stay connected. Whether you can give one hour, volunteer for one event, or donate an item it truly makes a big difference.

Here’s what we’ll be talking about this month:

🍪 Volunteers for Cookies & Craft Night this Friday — a chance for families to create and have fun together.
🌎 Planning the January Multicultural Potluck — celebrating the many cultures and traditions that make GH so special.
🩹 Health Supply Drive results — big appreciation to every family who contributed.
☕ Donations for our December Teacher Appreciation Hot Chocolate Bar — let’s help give our staff a warm treat this season.

MPG is all about building community. Come support Gilbert Heights and leave with new connections to other families. We’d love to have you with us, whether it’s online or in the cafeteria. For those joining virtually, remember to download the Google Meet app before the meeting starts. Google Meet link: https://meet.google.com/eue-bruv-rcj

Hope to see you this Tuesday at 6!

Sincerely,
💚 Your MPG Crew
