This Saturday, March 2nd, come out and enjoy a night of music and community at the Laura Grace Snow Memorial Music Festival. This festival will be in the Goochland High School auditorium and the music will start at 6:00 pm. Tickets will be $5 at the door and all proceeds are going into a scholarship fund in memory of Laura Grace. This scholarship will be awarded to a deserving senior at the end of this school year. There will be concessions starting at 5:00 pm in the cafeteria for anyone that wants to have dinner before the festival starts. If you come early you will also get a sneak peek at the assorted hand prepared gift baskets that we will be raffling off at the end of the night. We have a lot of amazing performances that the whole family will love.

The GHS FFA will hold their 5th Annual Strawberry Sale through February 15th.  Please see any of our wonderful FFA students for details.  Delivery of these strawberries will be on March 11th, weather permitting.  The strawberries are picked and packed in the field in Florida and shipped to us. All proceeds help fund FFA activities.  

As a reminder, February 15th will now be a full instructional day due to snow cancellations. We will operate on a Day 2 schedule. If your son or daughter cannot attend school on February 15 due to planned family travel or other arrangements, please submit a note or call the front office to have the absence excused.
