If you have not already downloaded the new district app to your cell phone, you will want to do that before the start of the school year. Android: https://bit.ly/3haER3X or iPhone: https://apple.co/3h1r6Eu. This app will be our main form of communication with families. Make sure to enable push notifications.
Please note that the district has a new website. We encourage you to bookmark it on your device, www.ges60.org.
We have now fully transitioned to our ges60 email accounts. If you email any of our staff using the old germantownbulldogs email accounts, we will not get it.
We look forward to working with all of our families during the 2021-22 school year to make it one filled with success. As always, if you have any questions, please reach out to us.
