Yearbook Cover Contest
Design the 2024-2025 GBW Yearbook Cover!
“Growing Knowledge,
Rooted in Kindness”
Due Date: January 24, 2025
- Submit your artwork on a standard 8 ½” x 11” sheet of printer paper.
- Extend your artwork all the way to the edge of the paper. No white border!
- The artwork must include the following: “Greenbriar West Elementary”, “2024-2025” and the theme “Growing Knowledge, Rooted in Kindness” in bold, clear, and neatly done lettering.
- All TEXT must be kept within the 7 ¾” x 10” interior parameter of the paper. This includes your name.
- Write your name neatly in the lower right corner (within the interior parameter).
- Complete the entry form at the bottom of this flyer and attach it to the back of your artwork.
You can use markers, crayons, paint, or colored pencils, but outline your letters and images in black, like a coloring book, so that they stand out. Bold and bright colors work best; light, soft colors do not always print well. No 3-D artwork.
Please ensure that your artwork depicts the theme – if it does not it will not be considered. There will be one winner for the front cover, one winner for the back cover, with runners-up placed throughout the yearbook.
All entries must be turned in by January 24, 2025. No entries will be considered after that date. Place artwork in the box marked “Yearbook” in the GBW office. Winners will be announced on WGBW the following week.

Join GBW PTA!!
Let’s achieve our goal of having 250 members of the GBW PTA! We are currently at 251 members. Joining PTA doesn’t mean you have to volunteer any or at all! Help out if you want to, when you want to, or just simply help our PTA budget out by joining for $10-$20.
Mrs. Strohl's 3rd class and Mr. Smith's 4th grade class had the highest number of parents joining the PTA, so they will receive a treat from the PTA soon! Thank you for your support!

Polar Plunge Treats for GBW Staff
Here's the scoop: GBW staff are a real treat! So let's show them how cool we think they are by stocking the freezer with some polar treats on Wednesday, January 22nd.
Because these items will be temperature sensitive, please drop off at school the morning of the event between 8-8:45, or bring by Morgan's house in the week leading up (Wed Jan 15 - Tuesday Jan 21st). There will be a cooler outside of the garage for drop offs. Please email for the address, or any other questions: morganhebert525@gmail.com
