*Note: you will still be able to order the book any time after the listed date, but it will not arrive while school is in session and will be left in the office for pick-up during summer hours. Custom pages will not be accepted after April 24th. All custom pages will be reviewed by the yearbook advisor before publication.

The rest of the day will resume on normal schedule. Thanks for your cooperation.
You keep us going and show our students love and support every day. We appreciate all you do!
Happy Paraprofessional Appreciation Day
💖from all of us at GMS

Join us in celebrating Ms. Barker!

There will be no school Friday 4/3 and Monday 4/6.

Proceeds go to reducing the student cost of the 8th Grade Trip to Austin's (formerly Austins Park and Pizza) that will take place in May.
Help us continue this annual tradition to celebrate these students as they graduate from Middle School to High School and get some awesome swag while doing so!
*If you would like to order a shirt, but do not have a student in school, please leave your order form and payment with the GMS office staff.


Giddings ISD wants to inform you that after dismissal today (March 18, 2026) at Giddings Middle School, a student was reported to have made a threat. Administration immediately responded and worked with the Giddings Police Department, which has determined there is no active threat at this time. Student safety remains our top priority. Please remind your child to report any concerns to school staff immediately.
To meet the state-required instructional minutes and avoid having a make-up day on May 8, 2026, the Board of Trustees has approved eliminating the previously scheduled early release day on Friday, March 6.
As a result, school will dismiss at the normal time on March 6, 2026. The scheduled early release will not occur.
We appreciate your understanding and flexibility as we adjust the school calendar to avoid a bad weather make-up day. Thank you for your continued support.
