What a WEEK! 😮💨😂 GMS Red Ribbon Week 2026 was a REAL success, and we want to say THANK YOU to everyone who participated, dressed up, joined in the activities, helped behind the scenes, and made the week so much fun for our students!
A special shoutout to Ms. Weissmeier and Ms. Irvin, along with EVERYONE who pitched in to help make it all happen. Teamwork definitely made the dream work! 👏🏽💙
And when we say we were BUSY… BUSY is an understatement! 😂 We had so much going on, we needed a Red Ribbon Week just to recover from Red Ribbon Week! 🤣 Whew!
But one thing is for sure…
🚫 GMS IS DRUG-FREE! 🚫
💙 BIG BLUE showed up, showed out, and made it a week to remember!
📸 Check out some of the pictures below and see just how much fun we had at BIG BLUE! Trust us… the pictures only tell HALF the story! 😂❤️💙
Wednesday afternoon, we turned up the competition with a little Spike Out between our 6th, 7th, and 8th graders AND the staff & teacher team! 👀😂
Now listen… I KNOW the Icy Hot, heating pads, and Tylenol were on deck after this one because our students DID NOT come to play! 😂😂 They had some of the adults out there remembering muscles they forgot they had! 🥴🏐
But one thing about BIG BLUE… there is ALWAYS something BIG going on! 💙🐾 We laughed, competed, cheered each other on, and most importantly, continued celebrating Red Ribbon Week and choosing to be DRUG FREE!
Way to bring the energy, BIG BLUE! 💙❤️
🚧👷🏽♀️ CAUTION: BIG BLUE CONSTRUCTION SITE! 👷🏽♂️🚧
Today, BIG BLUE turned into a full-blown construction zone for Construction Day! 🦺🔨🚧 Our students and staff came ready to WORK… well, most of them! 😂
Because let us tell you… OSHA Inspector Ms. Ciara Owens was ON THE CASE! 🧐📋 She was making her rounds and handing out PPE citations left and right for anybody caught without the proper protective gear! 😂🦺🥽
WHEW! 😮💨 She gave out so many citations, she RAN OUT OF NOTES! 📝😂 Nobody was safe ... students OR staff!
🤫 Now come a little closer because we’re whispering this part… We heard she even gave HER OWN SON a citation! 😳😂 SHEESHHHH! No favoritism at this construction site! I just know he was thinking, “Way to go, MOM!” 😂😂😂
One thing about BIG BLUE, we are going to have FUN while celebrating Red Ribbon Week and reminding everyone that we are BUILDING a bright, healthy, and DRUG-FREE future! 💙🚧❤️
Yesterday was Hawaiian Day, and you could NOT tell us we didn’t take a vacation for the year! 😂🏝️✈️
From the straw skirts and Hawaiian shirts to the shades and island vibes, BIG BLUE understood the assignment! 😎🌺🌴
We may have looked like we were on vacation, but we’re still standing strong with our message:
🚫 WE ARE DRUG-FREE! 🚫
We’re having a great time celebrating Red Ribbon Week and showing that you can have FUN, make good choices, and stay drug-free! ❤️
📸 Check out some of our Hawaiian Day pictures below! 👇🏽
