The GISD bus drivers have noticed some great behaving students on their buses this month. If your child comes home with a surprise treat, they were one of them! The elementary students will receive their treat today, and the middle school students will receive their treat on Monday.
In total, 48 elementary and 54 middle school students earned the reward for great bus behavior this month. Each student received (or will receive) a bookmark and a yummy snack from Transportation Director, Nicole Mann.

Due to inclement weather, Gunter ISD will start school 2 hours later on Wednesday, February 19th. All bus routes will also run 2 hours later than normal.
With the continued precipitation and freezing temperatures overnight, we feel the safest thing to do is to wait and give the roads a chance to warm up before our buses, faculty, and students drive on them. Stay warm and safe!
Also, with the temperatures below freezing, middle and high school will not have monitored traffic by our police officers. It's much too cold for them to be outside for a long period of time. Please drive friendly.
Fill the stands for the boys tonight!
