GHS ANNOUNCEMENTS FOR TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 12, 2017
ANNOUNCEMENTS:
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.
IHSAA Student-Athlete Tip of the Week: A wise coach once said that it’s just as tough to handle success as it is to handle failure. One current star, professional golfer Jordan Spieth, seems to understand the importance of humility in the midst of his success. When asked about the importance of humility in a recent Golf Digest article, Spieth replied by saying, “My speaking about humility is very difficult, because that wouldn’t be humility.” A student-athlete who understands this lets other people do the talking about who’s good and who’s not. Tooting your own horn can cause a problem bigger than a major traffic jam!
This Saturday, the Crimson Marching Band will compete at the Concord Invitational at 9:25 p.m. If you would like tickets to the event you may purchase them in the band office. The cost is $7.00 per ticket.
