Spirit Week
September 25-29
is Spirit Week at HGCS. Each day will be
observed by students in a unique way. We
encourage all students to show their HGCS Lion Pride.
Students
should avoid the following: tightly fitting garments and garments with
inappropriate language on them.
The week
will conclude with a pep rally at 2pm in the gym as we prepare for the Home
Coming Varsity Football game Friday night at 7pm.
Snakes Alive
September 29, Ron Cromer, a specialist in herpetology, will
be here to share with elementary students.
He will share an educational Power Point, allow students to view
non-venomous snakes and reptiles tamed for petting. The event will conclude with the voluntary
opportunity for students to touch the reptiles.
Parents who do not want their student to participate, should email their
teacher.
Summer Box Tops
With Spirit Week in full swing, let’s continue our school pride by
turning in your summer Box Top collections. As a reminder, at the
beginning of summer we asked you to save your Box Tops. We will award
Chick-fil-A prizes to the Elementary, Middle and High school students that
collects the most Box Tops. Please submit labels in a ziploc bag with
your child’s name, grade, and homeroom teacher. It would be helpful if
you could put them in bags of 50 Box tops. The Box Tops are due by Friday,
September 29th.
Summer Reading Reward Breakfast
On Thursday, October 5, we will celebrate another successful
Summer of reading. Each individual class
met their reading goal, and has earned breakfast from Chick-fil-A (a Chicken
Biscuit). You may see the CFA cow “moooving”
around campus that morning delivering the delicious rewards. During the week,
the coupons earned by individual students will distributed by their
teacher. We are grateful for the
continued sponsorship of the Summer Reading program by Chick-fil-A, Albemarle
