*2020/2021 PTO Information Sessions
August of 2020 will be here before we know it! New schools opening and new attendance lines drawn will bring big changes to GHES. Sadly, the current PTO leaders have all been rezoned for another school and will no longer be at GHES beginning next school year. We need some great, friendly, dedicated parent volunteers who are willing to continue our PTO success and help our students and staff be the best they can be! If you have ever thought about getting involved in any type of way, GHES needs you! We are having a PTO information session day to have open discussion about next year and to answer any questions about PTO leadership or positions to fill. There will be two sessions on January 22, one at 9:30am and another that evening at 6:30pm. Both sessions will be held at GHES.
We hope that we will have parents come share ideas, concerns, questions, and to also commit their time in helping to restructure our PTO. If you’re unsure the time commitment or question whether you have the time, please come to have all your questions answered! If you just want information as to what will take place in regards to the PTO, please come! We are also inviting parents from other schools that have been rezoned to GHES. We want to welcome newcomers and get feedback and commitment from all who are invested in our school. Looking forward to seeing you all there!
