Welcome to the week of February 9!
Last week, we enjoyed a full schedule of events that invited parents to engage with the experience and curriculum of our scholars. What stood out the most to you? Share your reflections with us at Info@GreatHeartsIrving.org. We love to hear from our community!

This week, there are plenty of opportunities to dive deeper into the life of the school. Students will be enriched with intentional time to meditate on Algebra, Art, and future college plans while parents are invited to volunteer at GHI. We will all join together for Spirit Night at Spring Creek Barbecue. Don't miss this unique time to strengthen our ties.
