Welcome Back to Gardnerville!

Welcome Back and a Huge Welcome to our New Families and Students to Gardnerville!  We are in for  another Great Year!  We became a California Distinguished School and this is an Honor we do not take lightly. We are determined to make this a Great year for our kids!  With our fundraising efforts last year, Friends of Gardnerville is funding the Michael Jackson MusIQ Lab so that our kids can continue to learn the language of Music!

We have an IMMEDIATE NEED FOR FUNDS TO BRING BACK OUR LIBRARY AIDE!  Drastic Budget Cuts eliminated out Library aide and the only way to get her back is to aggressively fundraise through Friends of Gardnerville!  We have initiated a Pledge Drive and we are asking every family to participate.  Letters and Credit Card Forms went home on Tuesday and Wednesday with the important Documents that need filling out. All Donations are Tax Deductible and 100% of the funds remain at the school for our kids. Friends of Gardnerville is a 501 (c) 3 organization.

We need every family's support in order to continue to make Gardner Street School Distinguished and the best it can be!

Welcome Back!
We are looking forward to working with you!

Lesley Holmes,
Chairwoman and Founder
