Congratulations juniors on the execution of a fabulous 2021 GHS Prom. A huge thank you to junior parents and friends that helped supervise, decorate, and provide decorations. The decorations have all been taken down and materials to be saved have been put on the stage. As less than two weeks of school remain, it is vital that loaned decorations get picked up or returned by juniors as soon as possible. Items that were loaned are located on and near the raised stage on the stage. All the extension cords and surge protectors also need to get returned to their rightful place. During this week, the prom materials to be saved will need to be taken to the prom storeroom.
The HS track meet scheduled for Tuesday, 4/20/21 has been postponed to Thursday, 4/22/21. As a result the JH track meet scheduled for 4/22/21 has been rescheduled to Friday, 5/14/21.
