The Tucker family made a generous donation to our GMS unit in memory of Harold Tucker. With this monetary donation our unit was able to purchase a laundry shelf and table for folding clothes. This will come in very helpful while teaching life skills to our students at GMS. Thank you for your generous donation Tucker family! ❤️

GMS 6th grade Social Studies students in Mrs. Velagic's class participated in bartering day!
