Military Veterans Come to Gobles

On January 4th a few members of “Lest We Forget” Military Veterans came to the Gobles Middle/High School to talk to middle school and some high school students about their experiences in different wars they were involved in. These students listened with interest and had many questions for the veterans. As the students took notes on important facts, the Military Veterans told about the different roles they took on during each war.. They also told the students how important it was to remember and preserve the past of what they went through to fight for our country.

Teachers at Gobles Public Schools are participating in the Teacher Wish List on line. TWL is a website where teachers can go to list their "wishes" for supplies and other materials needed at school. It provides a way for teachers and donors to connect. You can access this site at http://teacherwishlists.com/ or you can also find it at www.woodtv.com in their community section. Review the items that teachers are requesting. If you and your family or business can grant a wish by donating any of these much needed supplies, teachers would greatly appreciate it. Contact the teacher directly or by calling the school and make arrangements to drop off your donation. Together, as a community, we can help our teachers help our kids!
