EARLY MORNING WALK/RUN with Mileage Club

Guadalupe's Mileage Club is reving up for the spring. If you need to drop off your student early, Mileage Club is a great way for them to get more exercise or even get a little extra wakeup before class starts. Thanks to our amazing volunteers who are at school every morning starting at 7:40AM. We can help students start off the school day right. 

We also encourage parents to join their students as an alternative to coffee in the morning! To register, click on the button below. If you have any questions, please get in touch with Brian Fry <brianfry713@hotmail.com>

VARIETY SHOW THANK YOU!

For 6 years, Jill & Robert Binkley have been organizing the Guadalupe Variety Show. They are graduating from Guadalupe this year and moving on to middle school. The Guadalupe community would like to give them a big round of applause for all the creativity and time they gave to the Guadalupe Variety Show. 


We would also like to applaud Divya Duvvuri, who shadowed the Binkleys for this year's show and will take the lead for next year's show. We would also like to thank the amazing parents who helped behind and in front of the curtain and our Guad alums, Cedric and Kian!

If you are interested in helping next year with the Variety Show, please contact Divya <varietyshow.ghsc@gmail.com>.

Birthday Book Club

Joining the Guadalupe Birthday Book Club not only gives your student a special treat during the school year. It also gives back to the Guadalupe Library and builds the library catalog with books the kids love reading.


Even if your student's birthday has passed, there is still time to get a book for your student that will be kept in the Guadalupe library. Your student will get to pick out the book and have a bookplate celebrating their birthday placed into the book of their choice!
