If you have any questions please contact Mrs. Long in room 1400 or see senior Danielle Horn.

WORK PERMITS: When you get a work permit EVERY box needs to be filled out on the Intent to Employ form before we will issue you the work permit. Please bring completed forms to the main office in the morning and they will be completed by the end of the school day.

YOU MUST BE STAYING AFTER SCHOOL FOR SOMETHING TO PARTICIPATE IN THIS – The GHS cafeteria is offering free after school snacks every day after school.  This program is for any student who is staying after school. All student-athletes, club members, music participants, drama participants, after school homework help kids, etc. are strongly encouraged to stop by the cafeteria after school and take advantage of this generous opportunity.  Students just need to show their ID and they can grab a healthy snack to go that will hold them over during their after school activities until dinner.  The cafeteria will stay open until 3:55 p.m. to hand out the snacks. All students picking up the healthy snack after school will need to eat their snack in the cafeteria.  We appreciate your cooperation with this adjustment that is mandated by the state of Indiana in order to continue this program.

If you are a student that leaves the building at any time during normal school hours then you must have a sticker on your ID if it’s for a class (PACT, Building Trades, EACC, Merit, shortened schedules, Red Zone, internship, yearbook, etc.) that indicates that or a blue pass from the office indicating that you have permission to leave. Building Trades, EACC and Red Zone students are also required to sign out at the Welcome Center before leaving. You can get this sticker in the main office from Mrs. Wolfe or Mrs. Kuiper.

The GHS activity ID is the best deal for entry to athletic events.  See Mrs. Haney in the main office with $40 for an activity ID, which also gets you discounts to dances and some concerts.  We are also offering a five game pass for $20 which can be purchased from Athletics, but it does not work for varsity football.

Please stop by the commons area (either by the cafeteria or outside the main office) during lunch if you are interested is speaking to the following:

• TODAY                                       Marines

Just a reminder that if you are coming to see Ms. Tovar you need to check in with the staff in the main office and fill out a request to see her. She will send a white pass for you as she has time. Please do not cut through the nurse’s office to get to her. You need to enter through the main office.

MEETINGS DURING SRT:

A MANDATORY class meeting will be held TOMORROW for seniors during the 1^st session of SRT in the main gym.  Next week, meetings for freshmen will be on Tuesday, and sophomores and juniors on Thursday in the auditorium.  These meetings are required aspects of the Goshen Schools random drug policy, but we also use these to get you information about class rings, graduation, student council activities, and expectations for fan behavior at ball games.  Seniors will report to their SRT for attendance and will then travel with their class to the main gym and sit together.  We hope to complete the meeting by the end of 1^st session.

There will be a MANDATORY sophomore class meeting TOMORROW during the 1^st session of SRT in the auditorium.
