I have a very quick message for you.
I hope each and every one of you enjoyed your spring break and are ready for the weeks ahead of us. I do need to emphasize that these last weeks will move by quicker than you can imagine. It is important for students to not fall behind with attendance and academics. Please assist us in monitoring these items through Parent Assist as much as as possible and reach out to any teachers with any questions or concerns. With the 3rd quarter report cards going home with students on Tuesday, we should all be focused on finishing this year as strong as possible.
Parents of seniors, please remind your child that they need to have ALL of their service learning hours submitted by Wednesday, April 19th for outside events as well as all of their club/class opportunities!The hours should be approved by April 20th! The county will be pulling the information from x2VOL to determine which seniors have earned the SL award and SL diplomas for graduation.
Thank you for spreading the word!
GCS and community partners will be conducting a full-scale emergency management exercise on Saturday, May 6, at Southwest Middle. The scenario will focus on parent/student reunification and incident recovery. Staff volunteers are needed to fill various roles, and those interested are asked to sign up by April 21. The exercise will begin at 8 a.m. and end at noon, and lunch will be provided. Contact the GCS Safety Office at 336-370-8995 with questions or sign up.
As it relates to the Prom on May 13, we want to inform any and all individuals that students must be present in school on Friday the 12th for at least half of the day in order to attend the prom. Any student who is out of school for more than half of a day on Friday the 12th will not be allowed to attend the Prom that Saturday, May 13th.
The annual senior picnic is currently scheduled for May 26th. The committee is asking for a small donation of $10.00 per family, however any amount would be greatly appreciated. You can have your child drop a check made out to SWHS PTSA or cash to the main office. Anyone that has had children experience the senior picnic will know what an undertaking this is and how vital the donations are to making it a success. Thank you for any assistance with this.
