     The education of children is a mutual responsibility of parents, students, and the Gordon Elementary School staff.  We want them to have a happy and productive year.  Only by working together with mutual support and respect can we accomplish this goal.

     Parents are encouraged to come and visit their child's classroom at any time, any day.  Parental involvement in a child's education is one of the most important aspects to help kids succeed in school.  We encourage and want parents to come and visit the school as often as possible!  If you wish to come and visit, please call 282-0216.
