Social Media Challenge
There are many social media challenges out there that encourage students to perform dangerous or destructive acts. We want to focus on social media challenges that encourage positivity among students. Through the month of October, GMS challenges everyone to offer encouragement through small acts of kindness to staff, students, and community members (cards, candy, kind words, etc.).
Send pictures to our counselor, Kacy Rodgers, at rodgersk@gladewaterisd.com and use #GMSCares in the subject line. Every week, she will post pictures on our Facebook page. https://www.facebook.com/gladewaterMS
Together, let's build positivity around social media and Gladewater Middle School!
