There are those who go the extra mile, and there are those who when you ask them to go the extra mile, go two. When Gallatin County School’s culinary team, together with Gallatin County teacher aides, bus drivers, and Sara Rushing, was met with the challenge of feeding 750 students from a fleet of yellow busses, they did it not only with positivity, but with excellence. In this season of Thanksgiving, we would like to say, “Thank You” to these individuals for the love and care that they put into each meal. In this year of COVID, we would especially like to express our gratitude for the wonderful Thanksgiving meal of turkey, potatoes, gravy, dressing, green beans, sweet potatoes, and pumpkin pie. This was not an easy task, but their team was determined that the children of Gallatin County would celebrate the tradition with a sense of normality. We cannot say it enough…Thank you Jamie Rider, Betty George, Carla Philipps, Robin Waddle, Melanie Stanelle, and Ruby Berlin for all you do. You are the best!
Correction: The WIFI Buses will be out tomorrow Friday, November 20th from 8 am until 6 pm. Sorry for the confusion!
Tomorrow, Friday, November 19th, the WIFI Buses will be in the communities all day from 8 am until 6 pm. We are sorry for the difficulties we had with the routers and hope this will help students get the work they need from the week downloaded. Also, we will be sending out Lunch on our Yellow Meals on Wheels. They will be at the regular stop in each community between 11-12. Our buses may run a little late tomorrow, so if they are not there right at 11, please wait; they are coming. Thank you, and have a great evening!
WIFI BUSES! The wifi buses will be back in location tomorrow, Thursday, November 19. We are sorry for any inconvenience this outage has caused and thank you for your understanding and patience. Again, Teachers will allow students time for makeup work now that the problem has been alleviated. Thank you for your patience and understanding. Also a big Thank You! to Shawnee Communications for stepping in and providing students access to Shawneelink Internet in Equality and Ridgway.
TECHNICAL DIFFICULTIES! We are still experiencing a problem with the routers on the internet buses. We hoped to have this problem resolved today but were not successful and are still actively working to resolve the issue. So there will be no wifi buses in the communities tomorrow, Wednesday, Nov. 18. If you have wifi internet service at home you can continue with school work as usual. Teachers will allow students time for makeup work once this problem is alleviated. Thank you for your patience and understanding.

Gallatin County Veterans and Community
We would like to invite you to view our online Veterans' Day Program for 2020 this Wednesday, November 11th. This year we could not do a live program due to COVID 19. We thought the next best thing would be to show you scenes from our past programs 2014-2019. This will air live at 6:00 p.m. on Veterans' Day. It will then stay on the website for the rest of the month, and can be viewed at any time. Feel free to leave comments.

Expectations for Parents of Remote Learners
Correspondence with teachers should be done by email during the hours of 7:45 a.m.-3:15 p.m. daily. Teachers will post office hours when they are available for correspondence. Teachers will attempt to respond to email and phone calls from 2:15 p.m. to 3:15 p.m. daily. (It may take 24 hrs to get a response from teachers.)
If a parent would like to call a teacher or vice versa they should do so from 2:15 p.m.-3:15 p.m. Teachers will not be able to answer calls before this time due to the fact that they have students in their classrooms and cannot be distracted with phone calls prior to 2:15 p.m.
Teachers will post assignments by 9:30 a.m. each day.
Remote learners should do their homework and turn it in by the assigned due date. Any assignments posted after 9:30 a.m. are due the next day.
If they do not turn in homework by the assigned due date it will be counted as a zero.
Remote learners should attend Google meets as often as possible.
If a remote learner cannot show up to a Google meet, they MUST email the teacher with a reason.
If the internet is a problem during the day, the remote learner must notify the teacher as soon as possible so other arrangements can be made.
Parents and students should check Parent Connect for grades. Grades on Google classroom do not reflect students’ full grade.
There will be a lunch change for next week. Instead of lasagna on Tuesday, we will be having Bosco Sticks.
*Shout Out Friday*
Our Gallatin County secretaries are the BEST! We are so thankful for all of the EXTRA hard work they have put into this crazy year. They answer tons of phone calls and emails as well as keep up with the day to day tasks that must be done to keep our buildings running smoothly. They truly make our district better. #hawkpride
THERE WILL BE NO STUDENT ATTENDANCE ON FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 18, 2020 at Gallatin County CUSD #7. This date was originally planned as a half day attendance for students. Gallatin County teachers will use the morning as remote planning time.
An additional calendar change, September 25, 2020 will be a half day attendance for students, with dismissal at 11:00 a.m. for remote planning. We thank you for your patience and cooperation. #hawkpride
