Welcome to The Weekly Roar!

Formerly known as The Gorrie NewsFlash, our newly rebranded newsletter is your go-to source for all things Gorrie Elementary.

Each week, we’ll share important reminders, upcoming events, and ways you can stay involved in our school community. Keep an eye out every Wednesday morning for The Weekly Roar, so you never miss a beat… or a roar!

The Weekly Roar is proudly brought to you by the Gorrie PTA. By joining the PTA, you’re helping make this communication — and so much more — possible. Purchase your membership and set up your profile today at MyGorrie.com to stay connected and support our school.
