This
week's musician in the library is Leonard Bernstein. You probably
recognize him as the composer of the score for the musical West Side Story, but did you
know that he was one of the first American-born conductors
to lead world-class orchestras and was an overnight sensation? To learn more
about Bernstein, come to the library and check out
the listening station! Have a suggestion for a future musician to
feature? See Mrs. Fedor in the library!
Hey Everyone, now that it’s October, don’t forget that it’s also SOCK-tober here at GMSS.

All you have to do is bring in new pairs of socks to the donation bin in the library before or after school. This event will be happening all month long and did I mention that you could win a $20 gift card? That’s right! Bring in your donations and get entered to win!
