The 2023 GTE PTA Fall Festival is quickly approaching. We are excited to announce that after a very successful Spring Fest basket raffle, we will continue this tradition by creating theme baskets that each classroom will sponsor. We are asking for your help in donating items related to your class' theme. See the graphic for your child's class basket theme.

Please send in your item(s) with your child, labeled with their teacher's name or basket theme. All donations are due to your class by Monday, October 23rd. This allows us time to wrap and make the basket as fabulous as possible.

Your support is greatly appreciated, and all profits will benefit Greentree Elementary!

Feel free to reach out with any questions you may have regarding your classroom basket to your homeroom parent or our PTA Basket Committee chair, Meg Ford, megford2015@gmail.com .

Calling for All Non-perishable Food Items (excluding Ramen noodles)!

Please consider donating items for our Annual Food Drive beginning Wednesday, 10/25 and ending Tuesday, 11/7! Your donations will go to the Society of St. Stephens to help those in need. There will be a grade-level competition for most donations.

Humble ISD Parent University presents Substance Use and Abuse on Thursday, October 26, 2023. In this in person workshop, we will share ways to identify signs, symptoms and mental health risks due to substance use. We will look at early intervention strategies and discuss the behavioral impact of substance use. Additionally we will share preventative measures you can take today for your children's safety. Register for this free class and read about other upcoming Parent U classes here.

Trot-N-Treat is a family fun run that we do during the kids’ specials time. We invite our parents, grandparents and even our little brothers and sisters to come to school and run or walk in our back parking lot.

In each grade level, the classes compete to see which class has the most energy and endurance. After the run and the counting of the laps, a trophy is presented to the class that has earned the most laps. They get to keep the trophy in their room until the next family fun run. We encourage all to come, except for your pets.

We love animals at Greentree but it is too crowded and the leashes are dangerous.

If you are unable to run or walk, we always need people to help us mark the pumpkins!

4th grade: 8:10-9:00

3rd grade: 9:05-9:55

1st grade: 10:00-10:50

5th grade: 11:15-12:05

Clinic Reminders
Donations: We are completely out of boys shorts/pants in all sizes. If you would like to donate any boys shorts or pants it would be greatly appreciated!

Screening: I have started vision and hearing screenings in the clinic. You will only be notified of results if a referral needs to be made.

Medications: If your child will be taking any medication at school, prescription or over-the-counter, I
must have a district medication form completely filled out. ALL medication must be brought by an
adult in the original store package or with a pharmacy label. The medication
form and medication policy can be found on my website as well as the Humble ISD website.

Cough Drops: Humble ISD does not allow cough drops on campus, not even through the nurse clinic. Please do not send cough drops to school with your children or in their backpacks.

Feel free to contact me for any questions or concerns.
