📚⚾️ Let’s Read, GES! ⚾️📚
GES has officially kicked off our 2026 Delmarva Shorebirds Reading Challenge!
Students who read 4 books and return their completed bookmark to their homeroom teacher will earn 2 Shorebirds tickets! 🙌 If you can't find your bookmark write your books down on a piece of paper and turn it in.
So snuggle up, grab a good book, and read your way through this chilly weekend while dreaming of spring baseball! 🌸⚾️
📣Parents, we want to hear from you!
Please take a moment to complete our parent survey and share your thoughts about why students may be absent. Your feedback helps us better support our students and families. Thank you for your time!
