Welcome, both new and returning families, to Ezekiel Gillespie Middle School, home of the Gillespie Grizzlies!
Every year, we will continue to provide a high-quality education that fosters academic excellence, nurtures social and emotional well-being, and prepares students for a successful future.
At Gillespie, we believe that building strong relationships is the foundation of a successful school community. We recognize the value of a positive partnership between home and school, and we are committed to working collaboratively to support your child's academic and social/emotional success. We encourage open communication and collaboration. Throughout the year, we will organize events to foster dialogue, share resources, and provide insights into your child's progress. Please watch your inbox for our weekly newsletter which will contain all the updates and information about what’s happening at Gillespie.
I would like to express my gratitude for your continued trust in us as we navigate this school year together. We are here to support you and your child every step of the way, and we are confident that this school year will be one filled with growth, success, and memorable experiences.
Please do not hesitate to reach out to me or any member of our staff if you have any questions, concerns, or ideas you would like to discuss. We are here to listen, support, and collaborate.
Wishing you a fantastic and enriching school year!
