We had a great field trip to the Air Zoo! Students took a Storm Chasers class to learn about tornadoes and hurricanes, which connected nicely to our study of natural disasters in Science. Afterwards, they had time to explore the exhibits and rides. #GLCSRyan #GoGullLake

One of our class Celebration Leaders designed this amazing poster to hang in our room to decorate for Thanksgiving. It is so fun to see the creativity and initiative of student leaders! #GoGullLake #GLCSRyan
