One of the young women works to design and test the rocket engine that powers spaceships, satellites and the rovers on Mars into space.  The other works to design habitats to be used in space and eventually on the moon.  Students learned so much about engineering and space!]]></description>

This year is a bit different. You will notice that there are two Wednesdays—January 7 and February 25—that are full days, even though they do not follow this usual pattern. Please note that this is not a mistake or a typo.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Watch for the “Day of Welcome” this Wednesday.  Also this week….If you have a 6th grader, brush up on your knowledge of latitude and longitude before your student quizzes you.  Have a 7th grader?  Be ready to review the geography of Africa.  8th grade?  Ask them about their favorite class and why they enjoy it.  It amazes me what they are learning!]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Dr. Linda Price, our guest speaker, shared information and strategies regarding stress management.  Ask your student about a few new ideas they learned. One way to reduce student stress is to help them get organized.  Not all students have found their best way to organize academics, sports, clubs, and social activities.  Have you heard of executive function skills?  A quote from the Harvard University Center on the Developing Child is, “No one is born with executive function skills, but nearly everyone can learn them.”  Check it out, and share ideas with your middle schooler!]]></description>

To make it great, Mr. Libby and Student Council are looking for about 40 parents to volunteer time, donations of pizza, snacks or drinks for the concessions. If you are able to contribute, please drop off your items between 5:00 p.m. and 5:45 p.m. at the school. A sign up sheet has been created by the GMS PTO. 

Your support is greatly appreciated, and it helps make this event special for our students!]]></description>

7th-grade students recently completed a project which involved researching a food item that is culturally important in Judaism. Students were asked to create a one-minute slideshow presentation and either make or purchase their food item to share with the other seventh grade team. Osprey and Katahdin students worked really hard to learn about the history of their chosen foods and many challenging recipes were shared.  Presentations were impressive!]]></description>

Before construction, students gave 3 solid reasons why their device would work. Then, during construction, they made multiple observations using fake eggs and adjusted their devices accordingly. The 6-foot drop happened today (Friday) in the classroom. You could feel the excitement and smell the results from miles away. All survivors will participate in the much anticipated Lobby Drop on Monday! Ask a 6th grader about their device and today's results!]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Last Monday the 6th grade Social Studies Teams welcomed former Penobscot chief Barry Dana to interact with 6th grade students.  Having recently completed our Wabanaki Unit, his visit was timely because students had familiarity with the history and cultural information that he discussed with them. Barry was able to give insight into accurate terminology and provide answers to questions our secondary sources do not provide. We are grateful for Barry’s willingness to provide an indigenous voice that helped enhance our understanding of indigenous culture and history.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[On Thursday, May 2, the Southern Maine Math League held its first in-person meet since 2019. Teams from Gardiner to York gathered at the Portland Expo for the fourth and final meet of the year. Our GMS 6-8 Math Teams were in attendance.  For the third time this year, Greely Middle School's Seventh Grade Math Team, coached by GMS teacher Mark McDonough, secured a first place finish. Three members of the team also took home individual awards. These are given to the top five scorers from each grade.
