GHS ANNOUNCEMENTS FOR WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER 2, 2015

ANNOUNCEMENTS:

Students:  If you will miss a final exam, you will be expected to make it up after Christmas Break unless you have an administrator’s approval to take the exam early.

Sports Performance will be offered for all athletes not in a winter sport through Christmas break.  It will be offered on Mondays and Thursdays from 4-5:00 p.m. in the Warehouse.  You should change in the weight room locker rooms and take all your things with you over to the Warehouse.  If there are questions, contact Coach Clark or Coach Smeltzer.  You must have a sports physical and concussion paperwork on file with the Athletic Department before participating.

We will have extended media hours for tutoring on December 2^nd, 7^th, 9^th, 14^th and 16^th. You can get help, study or just do homework from 3:45-5:00 p.m. You need to be in the media center by 3:45 p.m. any day you attend.

Anyone interested in playing volleyball intramurals can stop by the athletic office and pick up a team or individual registration form. Games will be played through January here at GHS. Each player will receive a t-shirt and the winner of each league will get a pizza party. Each player will have a fee of $8. This fee will cover any intramurals that you participate in this year (volleyball, soccer, basketball). Forms and money are due to Mrs. West in the athletic office by the end of the day Friday, December 11^th. For more information see Mrs. West or email her at kwest@goshenschools.org.

Did you forget to turn in your senior announcement order?  Jostens representatives will be returning on Tuesday, December 8^th from 10:00-10:45 a.m. in the commons to take FINAL graduation products and cap/gown/tassel unit orders.  Announcement packets are available in the main office or see all of Jostens products at www.jostens.com.

Callbacks for the musical “Mary Poppins” will be TODAY after school.  This year’s musical will be incredible with all the wonderful songs and with a professional fly team coming in to help with the special effects.  Don’t miss your opportunity to audition!

Drama Club Christmas presentation group – Rehearsals are in the auditorium tomorrow at 3:45 p.m. and Tuesday, December 8^th at 3:45 p.m. You must be in attendance at these rehearsals to be in the production. Lines are to be memorized by Thursday.  See your director or Mrs. Long if you have questions.

IHSAA Student-Athlete Tip of the Week: What’s your mental approach when you are in a slump or having trouble getting playing time? Do you sulk? Do you feel sorry for yourself? Do you blame the coach or take accountability? How do you react in game time situations, especially in rival games? Gary Danielson, color commentator for CBS and former college (Purdue) and professional quarterback, said something during a recent broadcast that makes plenty of sense. “In the biggest games it’s the littlest things that make all the difference.” Sometimes when we look at the big picture, we forget about all the little things that can lead to success.  Pay attention to those little things along the way to lift yourself up when it really counts!

Ski Club packets are still available in Mrs. Clark’s room, 2280.  Make sure to pick yours up! Paperwork and money are due on Monday, December 14^th.

Key Club will meet in the cafeteria tomorrow during the 2^nd session of SRT.  Members who ordered t-shirts should bring $9 cash or a check payable to GHS Key Club to the meeting.
