The Giles Creek staff was SPOILED this week by our amazing PTO! Thanks so much for the food, the goodies, the dirty soda bar, and all the love as we head into the final weeks of the year. Special shout out to Mr. Jones for manning the grill for us this week and allowing us to use his room as a food headquarters for our lunches. Delicious!
