Teacher Appreciation Week
Teacher Appreciation Week was held from Monday, May 2 thru Friday, May 6. A committee of student council members was formed to pick out daily gift items for the teachers. To give thanks for all of their hard work, teachers received a coffee mug, lanyard, t-shirt, and pen as well as a special selection of breakfast items. The week of thanks was a nice way to show the appreciation all students have toward their teachers that so often inspire students during the school year.
Key Club Veteran’s Hospital Donation
After the Veteran’s Hospital expressed their great need for socks during the spring time, members of the Key Club organized the recent sock drive within the social studies department. Overwhelmingly, GLSHS students supported the cause by assisting through donations. Club members assembled the bags with socks and candies and delivered them after school on Wednesday, May 11, 2011. 150 veterans received these bags and about three cars full of extra socks were also given to the hospital to use throughout the year.
Business Students Participate in Annual Wildcat Mall
As part of the completion of the entrepreneur course, enrolled students applied what they have learned throughout the year by opening their own business at the annual Wildcat Mall. Before opening day, the students created a business plan, including everything that they would need to set up a business. This year, thirteen students enrolled in the class got a taste of being a small business owner when the mall occurred on Friday, May 13, from 7:30a.m. to 2:30p.m. A total of eight businesses were open for business, serving drinks, or selling tye dye or spirit shirts, among other items. “It’s a great way to wrap the class up and have the students apply what they have learned, while also providing fun for all involved,” said business teacher Mrs. Kalp.
