Here is a resource to check for eligibility for SNAP (food stamps) if your family is experiencing food insecurity at home.
The GHS CTE Department held an Interest Fair for grades 8th -11th students. Students were able to learn about exciting Career and Technical Education opportunities! Students rotated through stations:
Agriculture
Family and Consumer Science
Business
Each station includes guest speakers, fun activities, and a chance to explore their interests.
What an exciting day at GHS!
Ms. Harper's 10th graders studied Gothic Literature and used their knowledge to create fantastic one-pagers. Creative learning is so much fun!

Our High School CTE program represented well in the Gurdon Annual Christmas Parade. Way to bring that Christmas cheer, students and sponsors!
Next week will be GHS's Semester Exam week. To be exempt from testing, students should not have any unexcused absences and have either an "A" or "B" average in the class for the semester. Students are only required to be present during the time scheduled for their semester test. Busses will run their regular route, but they may leave once testing is completed for the day. Thursday will be used for students who could not take their tests on Monday, Tuesday, or Wednesday. If you have any questions, please call the high school office.
If you have a child or grandchild that is between ages 0-5, be sure and sign up for Dolly Parton's Imagination Library! This program sends your child a free book in the mail every month until they turn 5 years old. Early and frequent reading is an important part of later school success!

The halls of GHS were filled with early morning cheer for our teachers and staff! Hot chocolate, coffee, cappuccino and snacks were delivered by Santa's helper (Mrs.Hart) while the halls were decorated with cheer by our students.
THANK YOU! We would like to give a shout out to all the businesses, individuals, churches, pastors, and the various groups that fed our football teams and provided their devotionals on gameday. It takes a ton of different people pulling together to make everything work during football season from the moms providing post game snacks to the announcer on Friday night and everything in between. We have a great group of people that provide for our student athletes and we GREATLY appreciate them.
If anyone was left off this list we sincerely apologize! There are so many people that provide for our kids sometimes it is easy to lose track!
BE GREAT

🌟 Grateful and Blessed! 🌟
Today marks the last day before our break, and we couldn’t let it pass without expressing our extreme gratitude to Mrs. Anita Cabe and The Cabe Foundation for their incredible generosity. Thanks to their grant, our teacher’s lounge has been completely transformed into a relaxing and rejuvenating space for our hardworking faculty and staff.
This afternoon, we had the privilege of hosting Mrs. Cabe and showing her all the wonderful upgrades, including:
💺 A massage chair (which Mrs. Cabe got to try out!)
🛋️ A reclining sofa and chair
🍴 A new table and chairs
❄️ A nugget ice machine
🚪 A French-door refrigerator
🔥 An all-in-one Ninja convection oven
💻 A functional desk/work area
These additions have brought so much joy and comfort to our team. We are truly thankful for Mrs. Cabe’s continued support and dedication to our school. Her kindness inspires us all!
We hope everyone enjoys their break as much as we’re enjoying our new lounge!
#ThankYou #Gratitude #TeacherSupport #TheCabeFoundation
