Dear G-R Families,

You’re invited to join us on Tuesday, October 28, for two important community events celebrating ongoing and future facility improvements for Gladbrook-Reinbeck Schools.

SAVE ELEMENTARY PROJECT GROUNDBREAKING

Come celebrate the next step in improving our Elementary School, funded entirely through SAVE (Secure an Advanced Vision for Education) dollars — a statewide 1-cent sales tax dedicated to school infrastructure projects at no cost to residents.

After the celebration, head over to the High School for refreshments and snacks before the Referendum Open House begins at 7:00 PM.
