Purple Pride Pep Rally


Principal's Message

Dear Parents,
 
Together we approach the challenge of preparing our Gallistel students for the 21st century.  This is an important, but surmountable challenge for the parents, staff, and community of Gallistel Language Academy.  As we combine our efforts, I know that we will be successful in our endeavor, because it is so important for our students’ future.
 
Your support is a critical element in your child’s success this school year.  This parent manual will serve as a bridge of communication between parents, students and the school.  Additionally, online access to Gallistel information is available at http://gallistel.cps.edu. Please utilize these resources to stay informed throughout the school year. Please review this manual with your child.  It is paramount that students and parents know the guidelines set forth in this manual and use this as a key organizational tool for academic success.  
  
I would like to take this opportunity to invite parents to participate in school activities, so that we can continue to develop a true partnership in providing an exceptional education for our Gallistel students. Let’s continue to show that we have “Purple Pride” – pride in our school, pride in our students, pride in our community so that our students will be successful and productive citizens.
 
Thank you for all of the support you have given to Gallistel Language Academy.  We look forward to a very successful school year.

Sincerely,
 
Dr. Kimberly J. Nelson
Principal of Gallistel Language Academy
