GHS ANNOUNCEMENTS FOR MONDAY, NOVEMBER 30, 2020

 

ANNOUNCEMENTS:

COURSE 5: All students currently attending in-person in grades 7-12 have been extended to Course 5 until after December 11. This means you will be attending virtually. Please see the schedule attached in an email to students. Please note the change in SRT period with a 10 minute check-in session added. You must be logged on for the entire class. You can still be counted absent for not attending or late/tardy if you arrive late or leave early.

 

GCS has been offering meals for students in grades 7-12 while they are in Course V. We will continue to do that, but due to low numbers, we will not be able to offer meals at every Goshen School. Meals will now be offered from 11:00 a.m.-1:00 p.m. at Goshen High School, Goshen Middle School, Chamberlain Elementary, Waterford Elementary, and West Goshen Elementary. If you have not utilized this service, but would like to now, you may sign up at http://www.goshenschools.org/meal-sign-up. Parents may pick up meals for students if they have the GCS Student ID number. Students may also pick up for other family members, neighbors, or friends, providing they have the Student ID numbers.

 

Calling all singers! This year’s musical will be “Songs for a New World,” a show about the moments that big things happen in our lives. Auditions will be virtual this year, and we are asking students to prepare a song with a karaoke track and a one-minute monologue. More information and how to submit can be found at this google link. The audition deadline is December 4 at 6:00 pm. Hope to see and hear from you virtually! Contact Ms. O’Leary (koleary@goshenschools.org) with questions.

 

Nurse Wendy is available to answer any questions regarding Covid-19 between the hours of 8am-8pm Monday-Friday and on Sundays.  If you email her during other times of the day, please expect an answer after 8am.  If you are unsure if you should come to school, please do not come to school until you have heard back from Nurse Wendy.

 

This is a reminder that you can NOT park in the band practice lot or in spots designated for the small white buses. All vehicles need to be parked in a designated spot. There is parking on the grass South of the band practice lot and there is parking along the streets. Students also need to have a parking permit in order to park on campus. Please see the bookkeeper in the Main Office. You will need your driver’s license, vehicle registration, proof of insurance, and $5.00.

 

 

GTV students are working hard to bring you information about people and events here at GHS and beyond that have an impact on you.

Here’s how you can help:

 

 

 

School pictures will now be held on the morning of Friday, January 29th. They will be available to both in-person students and ROA students. More information will be send out as we get closer to that date!

 

We are giving all students free for their regular school meal; breakfast and lunch. This is due to an USDA waiver! IF a student wants a second meal or a la carte items they will be charged. Adults MUST pay for their meals. They are NOT included in this free program. Extra milk for packers is NOT free they must still pay. These free meals to all will last until the end of the 2020-2021 school year!!!

 

 

https://www.goshenschools.org/files/2020/08/Daily-Self-Assessment-Agreement-ENG-SPAN-TRANS.pdf

GCS needs every middle and high school student to have a daily self-assessment agreement on file, signed by a parent or guardian.  These can be filled out and emailed to wswallow@goshenschools.org or kbeck@goshenschools.org. They can also be printed and sent in to GMS or GHS.

 

 

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.

 

REMINDER:  Students are to wear their IDs at all times.  You MUST have your ID to purchase a lunch in the cafeteria.  If you forget your ID you can get one at the Welcome Center for $1.  If you need a lanyard they are $1, or we can provide string for free.

 

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.

 

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.

 

Homework help is available every Tuesday and Thursday in the Cafeteria from 3:45-4:50 p.m.  You must be in the Cafeteria by 3:50 p.m. in order to stay for this.  You are expected to exit the building through door M where a bus will be available at 5:15 p.m. if you need a ride home.  This bus is for students who stay for after-hours help ONLY.  This is a great opportunity if you just need a little extra time or even just a quiet place to do your homework at the end of the day.

 

MEETINGS DURING SRT:

  • French Club will be meeting virtually Tuesday, December 1 during the 2nd session of SRT! We will be learning about and celebrating the holidays as they would in France. The zoom link for French Club can be found on our canvas page. If you have any questions please email Mlle Mack. A bientôt!

TECHNOLOGY ISSUES:

Students, if you are having trouble with your school laptop, you are welcome to email your school computer support at GHS_TRC@goshenschools.org   (Notice there is an underscore after GCS, that is not a blank space.)  If you are having trouble with a lesson, please contact your teacher.  Contact GHS_TRC@goshenschools.org    for things like; it will not power on, the charger is not working, the screen does not work, a computer program will not open (like Chrome or Word), sound or mic not working, things like that.

  • PLEASE try to do a full power off, wait at least a minute, then power back on, to see if that fixes the issue.  That truly can fix a multitude of issues.
  • Please include your full name and email address we can reply to.
  • Please describe in detail the issue.  Please don’t just say it does not work.
  • If there is a pop up message what exactly does it say?
  • If you can use the snipping tool to take screen shots of error messages that is very helpful.  Just search for the word snip and you should find that.

Winter sport Athletic tickets and Pay/view:

For winter sports, we are currently in a situation where only families of participating student-athletes have access to tickets.   This is re-evaluated week by week and when we are able to return to 25% of capacity, we will then be able to offer tickets to students and staff.   Staff ID’s will not be honored for admission unless the staff has been notified by the athletic department.

 

Pay/view for all home winter athletic contest is available.  Any student or staff member who would like to run the camera for some games should let Mr. Kissinger know by email or stopping by athletics to discuss the expectation.  We could use your help.
