Wishing everyone a wonderful Thanksgiving!
How does it feel being a turkey? According to this one (who was actually Elementary Principal Lindsay Bailey), "It's hot. Especially around Thanksgiving!"
Ms. Bailey delighted many of her students Wednesday in the GPS cafeteria as Cheryl Jeffrey's staff served perhaps the most popular meal of the year -- turkey with dressing and gravy, green beans, rolls, salad, cranberry sauce and pumpkin pie. -- Story by MaKenna Pace, photo by Malechi Rains for the Panther yearbook.

Glencoe resident Roy Blankinship, left, presented a Quilt of Honor to his younger brother Marion Blankinship for his service to the United States during the Vietnam conflict. Roy had previously been honored with a quilt presentation. He honored his brother at the GPS Veteran's Day celebration in the Jennifer Lazenby Event Center Monday. With the high school students and staff in attendance, each of the elementary classes from Pre-K to the sixth grade sang patriotic songs or recited poetry to honor local veterans -- 11 of whom were present. The Blankinship brothers each served in the US Navy off the coast of Vietnam in the late 1960's . Glencoe Public Schools salutes the Blankinships and all our veterans.

As you clean out and get ready for the holidays, do you happen to have any sensory minded items that you would be willing to to donate to Glencoe Elementary to help students in our sensory/motor room?
With the help of Glencoe Elementary’s Occupational Therapist Ms. Nicole, Speech and Language Therapist Mrs. Lindy Tucker, we are starting up a sensory group to help both special education and general education students who need extra sensory supports. We are looking for new or gently used items to help us build our rotations inventory to have a varied experience for our students.
Items we are interested in include: weighted medicine balls, bean bag chairs, peanut medicine balls, modeling clay, touch and feel books, ISpy books, scented markers and stickers, mini trampolines, balance beams, sound machines, weighted blankets, etc. If you happen to have something else please reach out and we’d love to hear about your donation.
If you don’t have any of the listed items but find it in our heart to donate, attached is our Amazon Wish List.

What's better than a science experiment you can eat when it's over? Absolutely nothing! Mrs. Dershem's third- and fifth-hour Biology students each started and nourished a sourdough batch for two weeks learning about the process of cellular respiration as the yeast eats the sugars in the dough, creating carbon dioxide. As the CO2 expands, the gas bubbles get trapped and cause the dough to rise. Finally, the lactic acid fermentation begins..., oh never mind. It's a long story. Pass the jam and butter please! Below, third-hour students and Mrs. Dershem sample the fruits of their labor. -- Photo and news by Panther yearbook staff.
