Picture Day at GHS! Lots of smiles!

It's picture day at GHS! All students and staff should have their picture taken today 😃

From Student Services - Bowdoin College is hosting Maine Day on Monday, September 30th from 8:30 am to 1:00 pm! Each year they invite Maine high school students to visit their campus and explore the Bowdoin experience. During the day, students can take a tour of the campus, hear from a panel of Maine students, grab a meal in the dining hall, and learn what it's like to attend Bowdoin! Interested students and families can register for the day by going to https://www.bowdoin.edu/admissions/visit/maine-day/index.html Please reach out to their Maine admissions officers with any questions: Kathryn Stegeman (kstegema@bowdoin.edu for Cumberland and York counties) or Sarah Chingos (schingos@bowdoin.edu for all other counties).

GHS Key Club invites everyone to their first meeting of the year on Tuesday the 10th at 2:15 pm in Mrs. Whipkey’s classroom, room C-211. We will begin discussing our community service opportunities for the fall at this meeting as well as brainstorming some fun new activities for the year!

Reminder that Picture Day is tomorrow, Friday, September 6th!

The BackPack Program provides school-age students experiencing food insecurity enrolled in the Gorham School Department with healthy snacks and staple meal items helpful to your family for the weekend. We aim to provide food that is child-friendly, non-perishable, and easily consumed; and to distribute the weekly bag discreetly, with the help of school staff. Food bags will be distributed TO STUDENTS while they are in school once a week. In addition, participants will receive 1 snack per day while they are at school. https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1pUnKm0haa3l95uNFoaDD5OrsZsavKNbj8PegIfNRDtY/edit

Thank you to the Gorham High School Class of 1974 who celebrated 50 years this past weekend by stopping by GHS for a tour and to donate two beautiful benches, a tree, and $500 for a scholarship for a future GHS graduate. Such a generous and thoughtful class!

Two weeks until staff start back and sixteen days until Freshmen Day... But who's counting? We are missing the energy our students bring to GHS!
