We are very excited to announce that GRM will host our first ever Talent Show on Friday, February 13, from 1:00–3:00 PM!
In true Leader in Me fashion, this event is all about “Show Us Your Genius!” 🌟 Any student who would like to participate will have the opportunity to sign up next week. 🎶🕺🎨
Performers will bring home an invitation for their families with additional details as we get closer to the event. We can’t wait to celebrate the unique talents and leadership of our students!

Students explored the Ancient Civilizations of the Aztecs, Incas, and Mayans, writing essays that compared and contrasted topics such as farming, religion, written language, architecture, and social structure. To wrap up the unit, students collaborated with Ms. Brown our Art Teacher to create amazing 3D pyramids, Chinampas (floating gardens) with Mrs. Marcinak, Aztec mosaic masks with Mrs. Saavedra and each student also colored their own Aztec Calendar with Mrs MacWilliams. What a creative and educational end to an exciting unit! 🎨📚

Our fifth graders have been working so hard the last few weeks doing their ecosystem research projects. They created their trifolds based on accurate research methods and then designed an accurate representation of their ecosystem. They blew their presentation out of the water with their quick responses to their classmates questions. These projects will be displayed in the STEAM fair later this school year.











On Friday, December 19 the 5th grade students from the George Ross Mackenzie Elementary School graduated from the Sullivan County Sheriff's D.A.R.E program. Our students, led by our school resource officer, Deputy Lynch, worked for 10-weeks learning about drug and alcohol resistance, positive communication, and peer pressure. Our D.A.R.E essay and poster winners were Colten Daletto, Gunner VanTuyl, Kai Quiles and Evelyn Brundage. We'd like to thank the representatives from Sullivan County who were in attendance at the ceremony: Chair of the Legislature, Nadia Rajsz, Sullivan County Sheriff, Michael Schiff, Sullivan County Undersheriff Eric Chaboty, and retired Sullivan County Sheriff's Lieutenant Luis Alvarez.













Help support our community! Bring soups, canned goods, and other non-perishable items to our holiday concerts and basketball games now through February 5th.
Donations may also be dropped off at school office locations during regular school hours.












This bulletin board was a student-led Leader in Me project. A group of students in our intermediate wing chose each element they wanted to add and worked together as a team to complete each task. The project involved visiting classrooms in our primary wing to work with students in those grades to create some of the elements that were incorporated into the project. This interactive bulletin board asks all who pass by to fill it up with what brings them JOY. The problem solving, teamwork and leadership skills of our students was evident in the execution of this project. Special thanks to Mrs. Parker for supervising this activity of the Leader in Me Culture Team.
