Hello Ranchers!!!
Teachers: Please begin to share the information with your email distribution lists. Talk about it with your students as well. The Parent Empowerment Summit is specifically for parents and guardians of middle and high school students however, students are welcome to volunteer. We will have childcare provided by our Early Childhood Classes. Student groups from HOSA, SAVE and Service Learning will be participating at this time. If additional students would like to volunteer or would like to represent an organization, please have them see Mrs. Michelle Phillips.
Our
United Way Campaign is rolling! We are already off to a great start and we want
to continue our Reign as the Highest Supporter of the High Point Schools.
Making a pledge can cost pennies a day but help with so many lives. The first
payment will be paid in January.
For
Incentives, We Offer Comp Time for our Pledgers:
I
will place Certificates of Comp Time in your boxes while working Saturday
School and as they come in. Please use the slip to give to Mrs. Harris for your
comp time Logs/ use.
As an
added incentive, Staff that pledge at least $120 entered into a drawing for a
New Car! I have placed the drawing cards in your boxes. Complete the form and
There are two more drawings left… (Currently, a teacher at SW Elementary is in
the semifinals for a new car, so it is real, and REAL CLOSE!!)
This
year’s Campaign will end at Thanksgiving break. Please strongly consider adding
to our cause and support of United Way. Please let me know if you have
questions.

GTCC registration for
Spring semester classes are now open. They will need to come and see their
counselor for more information and to adjust spring schedules early. Here is
the link: https://www.gtcc.edu/academics/high-school-programs/career-and-college-promise.php
From the Attendance Committee...
This year in GCS there is a big
focus on attendance. While our school has always been heavily focused on
this, each school has an attendance team that meets frequently to track
students who are missing numerous days. We believe it is important to
provide a reminder of the protocol to follow when a student starts missing
school – especially two consecutive days. It is best practice for the
teacher to reach out to the parent via phone call or email first. This is
less threatening than being heard from the social worker or
counselor/admin. It also conveys concern from you that the student is not
in school. If absences continue, or if you are unsuccessful after a few
attempts to reach a parent, then it’s time to let Mrs. Phillips know. She
and Mr. Rainey aren’t shy about going to the home see what’s going on!
Fall Athletic Awards Ceremony Monday, Nov. 25 6:30.ore information form Coach Christman will be delivered to all coaches.
