Wha’? He was free. But, also, why is slavery presented as some kind of legitimate training ground. People could’ve (should have) learned all of this stuff without being enslaved. Why is this so hard? I know. I know.
Honored to attend another prom with my forever prom date. Our high school prom in 93, multiple proms together when I was a high school principal, and today the @GordonReedCISD PreK Prom with her class. This one is definitely the cutest ever!
Today we had our last Spotlight Ceremony. During the month of May we focused on CITIZENSHIP. Congratulations to all of our students that received this award and our two staff members, Mrs. Ana and Mrs. Stauffer!
Today was a busy fun filled day that we are very thankful for! We had our first ever Gordon-Reed Thanksgiving Day Parade, Writer's Celebrations, and Pringle Ringle! We hope all of our families have a wonderful Thanksgiving Break!
Our first play, A is for America was one you did not want to miss! Our students worked so hard and put on a great performance! We are so proud of them!
Voting has never been easier for us! Literally walked across the street, waited 10 minutes for our turn and voted 🤟🏾 Wish this was the case for all communities; especially after hearing about polling locations opening late, shutting down early and having long wait times 🤨
During the months of November and December each grade level chooses an organization to support to show gratitude. Our Character Trait of the month for December is Gratitude. Kindergarten is collecting socks! Check out the flyer to see how you can support them!
What a GOURD-geous night for our first Trunk or Treat. We also had a special guest make her first appearance last night! Everyone meet our mascot, Annette! @agordonreed
Our Inaugural Trunk or Treat event at Annette Gordon-Reed Elementary! Our mighty mighty fighting biting tiger cub mascot, Annette, made her first appearance! Special shout out to my personal kiddos for volunteering to make the night special for our Cubs! 🥰 @agordonreed
We want to thank Montgomery County Emergency Service District #3 Station 31 for coming out to teach our Cubs about Fire Safety Awareness. Make sure you test your smoke alarms!
@ConroeISD This distinction hits home, and I could not be prouder of my hometown! Growing up here since the 90s, I have witnessed some major shifts. It is no wonder people from all over the world choose CISD for their children! Proud to be an alum and employee of our phenomenal district! 🥰
Superb! I had the absolute pleasure of conversing with @MikeRuyle regarding Culturally Responsive Teaching - he gets it! Too often we mold students into our school culture without paying deference to their family culture. It is of vital importance that we unite the two.
Our mission at Gordon-Reed is to "Ensure exceptional learning and growth for all students and staff."
Last Friday Gordon-Reed teachers continued to learn and grow to provide the best possible learning experience for our students! @MikeRuyle
