It's Match Day for Abi at the SIJHSAA State Golf Tournament. All of Bulldog Country wishes her the best of luck as she takes on the toughest competition in the state. Good luck, Abi. Show them what you've got.

Fourth graders who went above and beyond to complete their April reading logs fully met today for our first "book club" meeting. At GES we choose to foster reading in all areas of life even when it isn't for a grade😃

Our 2nd through 4th grade students are all pumped up about STEAM Day this Friday. The teachers have some exciting activities planned that incorporate Science, Technology, Engineering, Art, and Math. Let's get ready for some STEAM-tastic fun!

Join us for our annual Field Day event on Tuesday, May 23, and help us make it a fun and memorable day for our students. The PTA is looking for volunteers to help with stations, assist with setup and cleanup, and keep everything running smoothly.
If you're interested in volunteering, contact Danielle Ribbing, (314)691-0026 or dguilliams24@gmail.com.

Hundreds of people made their way to Schoendienst Park for the 19th Annual Bulldog Dash. Many people and individuals played a role in making the event a huge success. Our sponsors, the local businesses, donated over $21,000 to the event. We would like to thank all of our sponsors, most notably Jansen Chevrolet, our Diamond Sponsor, for their support of the Bulldog Dash. Thank you to the Kernel Nut Club for their support. The burgers and hot dogs they provided for the participants were a hit. To the emergency personnel that helped monitor traffic flow to keep the racers safe on the route, thank you. We appreciate the people stationed along the route who cheered on the racers and provided some running music. Over 400 people registered for the event. Without you, we wouldn't have a race. To our emcee, Mr. Rakers, thank you for sharing your public speaking skills with us. Last but certainly not least, a BIG round of applause goes out to the Bulldog Dash Committee members. It took four months of work behind the scenes to prepare for this event. These individuals volunteered countless hours of their time to Bulldog Dash preparations in the best interests of the children, the school, and the community as a whole. They are difference makers and deserve recognition. Bulldog Country stands proud and salutes everyone involved in making this year's Bulldog Dash another one for the record books. #ProudtobeaBulldog
