Every Leopard, Every Day!
Week of May 6th
GHS Weekly Newsletter
Good Evening Leopards!
It's game time for our Leopard Learners this week! We have a full week with our final round of EOC testing (Biology, US History and Algebra I), Our Top 10% Shining Stars Gala, Senior Parent Meeting, Ag Barn Dedication, Senior Class Night and a One Act Play Public Performance. To top it off, this busy week is no better way than to honor our educators for Teacher Appreciation Week.
I must take this time to thank each and every one of our teachers here at Gainesville High School who give their time, effort and love to our Leopard Learners to ensure they have every opportunity to succeed. They work to ensure that we serve Every Leopard, Every Day! If you can spare a few minutes, I encourage you to send a short email to your student's teachers as a simple thank you goes a long way!
As always, thank you for allowing us to be part of your student's journey. Please do not hesitate to reach out if you have any questions, concerns or ideas you would like to share!
With Leopard Pride,
Melissa Hutchison, Principal (Proud GHS Graduate)
