A MESSAGE FROM OUR SCA CO-PRESIDENTS

Dear Glenwood Landing Families,


Spring has arrived (finally!) and with it are some exciting events and announcements!


The GWL SCA is excited to once again offer a $1,000 Merit Scholarship for a current North Shore High School graduating senior who attended and graduated from Glenwood Landing Elementary School. The student may write an essay or create a project describing a memory or experience they had at GWL that has shaped who they are today. If you have or know a graduating North Shore High School Senior, please tell them to contact the High School Guidance office for an application. Applications are due April 11th


After the Bell Spring session sign up is April 1-3. Scroll down for details and to see the fun class offerings this session!


Don't forget to order your GWL Yearbook-see below for details!


Our next SCA member meeting will be held virtually on Tuesday, April 8th at 7:30 pm. There will also be a class parent meeting following the member meeting.


This year, PARENTS' NIGHT OUT - "VIVA LA GWL" will be held on May, 29th, 2025. Line up your babysitters now and get ready for some fun! Please consider volunteering for the opportunities leading up to this event. Your help will make it a huge success! One for the money, two for show, three to get ready, GO GWL, GO LET'S GO!  🃏♥️♣️


We wish everyone a fun and relaxing Spring Break! Enjoy!


Warmest regards,
Serena Mooney & Maria Palmieri
