Our Senior Pep Rally will be next Friday, February 2nd at 1:00PM! Seniors need to come with their sign, and be sure to wear tennis shoes! We hope the parents of our seniors can also come out to celebrate!
GISD is closely monitoring the weather and still plans to start school at our normal schedule. We understand that some in the community live on roads that may not be safe to drive on at this time. Remember, do not drive through water over the road; turn around, don’t drown. If you cannot travel safely, all we ask is that you call us in the morning and let us know that your child will not be present. Thank you and stay safe!
Senior parents, it's scholarship season! Today in class, all seniors received the first scholarship packet as well as instructions for applying to our local scholarships. They also received an email with a link to a digital copy of all the scholarships discussed today! The first packet is due to Mr. Davis by February 13th! The FAFSA is now open for all students to apply, and while we will have a FAFSA night in February, we encourage all families to begin the application as soon as possible. As always, if you have any questions please contact Mr. Davis!
