• Dear Gibbsboro School Families and Staff,

          Welcome back to all returning families and a big WELCOME to all new families. I am honored as well as excited to serve as your HSA president for the 2023-2024 school year.  The HSA will be hosting a variety of fundraisers and events throughout the year. You will be hearing more about these events as the year progresses. We welcome suggestions for new fundraisers and events. Please email us at hsa@gibbsboroschool.org

          Our mission is to coordinate the efforts of parents, teachers, staff members, students and community members to further enhance the academic education, character education, and recreational needs of Gibbsboro School through financial support. With the support of our school and community, we were able to raise almost $18,000 this past school year. With the funds raised, the HSA was able to support our school community with over $25,000 in teacher requests. Some of the things the HSA funded include fencing around the playground, a shade structure for the playground, character education tshirts for the entire school, sponsoring the author/illustrator Ross Burach to present to our school, and multiple teacher requests for STEM materials for classrooms. In addition, the HSA sponsors annual scholarships, Student and Staff Member of the Month awards, and teacher appreciation. 

    If you are looking for a way to get involved, we can help. Any amount of time you have is great. Meetings are usually held on the third Tuesday of each month at 7pm, unless otherwise noted. Our meetings will be held in the school library. Babysitters will be available for potty-trained children.

    Becoming a member of the HSA only costs $10.00 per family or staff member. This gives you the benefit of voting on HSA issues and an opportunity to run for a position on the executive board. We are currently running our membership drive until October 31st. Please consider joining the HSA.  

          I would like to thank you in advance for all your support. If you have any questions at all, please do not hesitate to contact me. Have a wonderful, productive and fun school year. I look forward to seeing you at the monthly meetings and the events we have throughout the school year!

     

    Sincerely,

    Beth Schmidt

    President, Gibbsboro HSA
