Archives for November 2018

In connection with the Goochland Education Foundation and supported by the Community Foundation of Richmond, our Kajeet Program continues this school year to qualifying families who are in need of internet service. There are a few changes from the program last year, so please visit Dr. Hendron’s post on the GCPS website for more details.

Seniors, Jostens will be in the building on Thursday, November 15th during all 4 lunches for you to order caps, gowns and graduation announcements. If you need another packet of order forms, please see Ms. Moser or Ms. Timberlake, they each have a few left.

Over the next few weeks you might see some of us a little scruffier than normal, as we raise awareness for cancer by participating in “No-Shave November.” After speaking with our team, we have agreed that the person who has the most donations will get “pied” in the face during lunches on November 30th. We also agreed that the person with the fewest donations must keep a mustache for school on December 3rd. Help us raise funds for cancer research by donating to our team today!  For more information, visit https://no-shave.org/team/Team_Goochland.

Don’t forget to bring in non-perishable food items to your Bulldog Block for the Goochland Christmas Mother  starting Nov. 5^th through Nov. 16^th   The Bulldog Block with the most donations gets those bragging rights and a few additional perks like a pizza party!  In addition, the winning Bulldog Block will have their picture taken and printed in the Gazette with the Goochland Christmas Mother. Let’s have a little fun and help our community at the same time!

Please join us on Wednesday, Nov. 7, 2018, at 6:00 PM in the Learning Commons for Financial Aid Information Night.

Come prepared to take notes on all of this important information!
