Home of the Bulldogs
As we head into a well-deserved break, we would like to thank all of our students, parents, staff and community members for a great first semester. We are truly amazed by the wealth of talent and opportunities we have in our small community. We would like to wish each member of our Bulldog Family a happy and safe holiday season!
Attached is a copy of the GHS Winter Midterm Exam/PBA schedule for the week of December 11th. Since we no longer have a traditional exam schedule, some teachers have opted not to administer an exam or chose to offer an alternative assessment during the exam week. Others chose to continue to administer exams as they provide teachers with data for SOL remediation. The schedule also includes two exam review days, as well as review time prior to exam testing. We hope to provide our students with the best opportunity for success!
We regret to inform everyone that the Winter Dance scheduled for December 19th is canceled due to low ticket sales. Students who purchased a ticket need to see Ms. Kuhns in room F176 for a refund. Hopefully we can rebound for the Sadie Hawkins Dance in February. Have a safe and relaxing Winter Break, Bulldogs!
Please make plans to come and support our PTSA All Night Graduation Committee on Wednesday, December 13th for our Spirit Night at Chick-fil-A in Short Pump. The event will be held from 5pm-7pm, and a portion of the proceeds will be donated to the PTSA ANG!
In partnership with Jostens, Goochland High School is excited to host the regional Jostens Renaissance Fair on Tuesday, December 12th. Schools from around the central region will join us to hear Mike Smith from The Harbor speak in the morning. Student drivers should park in the back of the stadium parking lot, as we will rope off the front section of the student parking lot to accommodate busses from visiting schools. Since we are hosting the event, Mr. Smith will hang around to speak to our students in the afternoon during a special assembly. We will operate on a Day 2 pep rally schedule to hear Mike speak to our students in the afternoon on leadership, changing school culture and climate, and pursuing their passions. We are excited that Goochland High School was selected to host this special event, as we continue to build a positive school climate at GHS!
Come out to support the Goochland High School Performing Arts department this Monday, December 11th at 7:00PM. The GHS Jazz Band, Acapella Club, Jazz Choir, Concert Choir, Dance Department, Concert Band, and Percussion Ensemble will be collaborating to bring a Holiday Celebration to Goochland High School. Admission is free, so join our students as they bring in the holiday season!
