Booktoberfest

We are so excited to share with families that our 2nd Annual Booktoberfest is coming! Booktoberfest is a month-long celebration of special events all centered around growing great readers at Glennwood and building a lifelong love of reading! Events will be sponsored by our community partners, GL PTA or the school.
If you have any questions, please contact Dee Anna Rittenhouse, Library Media Specialist at drittenhouse@csdecatur.net or Anne Dishman, Media Clerk at adishman@csdecatur.net.
You're Invited to The Wild Robot Movie!
Sunday, October 13 at 2:00 PM
Here is a link to the movie trailer of The Wild Robot for a sneak peek.
In celebration of our 2nd Annual Booktoberfest, Glennwood students and staff are invited to a private and much-anticipated showing of Peter Brown's The Wild Robot at Decatur's North DeKalb AMC 16 Theater. Peter Brown is an amazing children's author and illustrator, and the release of this movie is so exciting! We hope you were able to read it this summer. If not, there is still time!
The cost of the movie tickets is provided courtesy of the Glennwood Library Fund. Each GL student is permitted to bring two guests (including their parent/chaperone) for a total of 3 tickets available per student. Families must RSVP by Friday, October 4th by completing this form. (Students must be chaperoned by at least one adult.) Food/Drink items will be available for purchase through the theater concessions.SPACE IS LIMITED SO PLEASE RSVP AS SOON AS POSSIBLE! -

Walk and Roll to School Day - October 11
Please join us on your feet, your bike or your scooter (don’t forget those helmets!), and let’s show CSD how Eagles SOAR! Students who walk, bike or scoot will continue to enter their grade-specific doors, where they will be counted, using our traditional marbles, by their staff door monitors.
Don’t forget, each marble counts towards students earning extra school-wide recess, with announcements made at Community Circle! For additional details (including our three Walking School Bus Routes) and a full Walk & Roll schedule for the year, please visit the Glennwood website. TO VOLUNTEER SIGN UP HERE

Community Circle
Friday, October 11
Community Circle
We welcome parents to continue attending Community Circle! Be ready to sing and participate as we will now have the song lyrics and other program highlights posted on the big screen!
In order to maintain security as well as manage logistics of quickly moving guests and classes in and out of the auditorium, we do ask that you follow a few guidelines:
-
Parents may enter the building after 8:20 am once carpool time ends.
-
Parents must enter through the carpool doors by the auditorium ONLY.
-
Be prepared to show your Community Circle Visitor Pass or your ID to the staff member on duty (the pass will be emailed to you and a hard copy will also be sent home.)
-
Parents will have designated areas to sit or stand in the auditorium. The benches along the walls are available on a first-come, first-served basis. Just like our previous Community Circles, students may not sit with parents and younger siblings may not sit with their older siblings who are Glennwood students.
-
Please keep the pathway of traffic clear at all times near the exit doors in the auditorium. The floor will be marked with tape.
-
Parents will be dismissed first once Community Circle is over. Please exit through the auditorium or carpool doors as quickly as possible. Classes begin at 8:50 am and students need to be able to exit and get to class quickly.
Students arriving after 8:20 am are considered tardy and parents will need to park and bring the student inside to the auditorium if arrival is 8:30 am or after.
