All Aboard Dove's Reading Adventure!
We are thrilled to announce Dove’s Reading Voyage challenge, which will commence on February 4 and conclude on May 2. 📚⚓️ Participants will have the opportunity to engage in reading while tracking their progress. After completing the first 100 minutes, they will turn in the slip at the bottom of page 1 to Mrs. Young. This will earn them a bookmark and their name on the window. There are 5 levels with each level requiring 300 minutes of reading. At the end of each level, they will turn in their form for a prize and the next form. They can count minutes read or read to! We encourage everyone to join us in promoting literacy and a love for reading! The first sheet will be sent home February 4th. After that, they will get a new one from Mrs. Young upon turning in the one they have!
Let’s celebrate the bonds of friendship and the unique beauty of our diverse backgrounds! Sign up below to participate or contribute. We can't wait to see you there! 👫🌏

With the accumulation of snow today, and anticipated below-freezing temperatures overnight, Grapevine-Colleyville ISD will be closed Friday, January 10, 2025. All facilities will be closed and any scheduled practices and activities are also canceled. Any changes to weekend extracurricular activities will be communicated by the group’s sponsor or coach.
GCISD’s 2024-2025 instructional calendar has a sufficient number of minutes to cover this weather-related closure and the days will not have to be made up. Have a safe and warm weekend, and we look forward to welcoming our staff and students back on Monday, January 13!
