GWCS ONLINE EVENTS CALENDAR - UPDATED DAILY
Save the Date: Tuesday, November 21st 10:00 am to 12:00 pm! It's the...Heritage Feast!
The Heritage Feast is a GWCS tradition that began in 2010 when a student asked Ms. Warden if the GWCS family could have a Thanksgiving dinner together at school. Ms. Warden (who always says yes to a good pot-luck dinner) endorsed the idea and a tradition was born.
In the beginning, families contributed their favorite traditional Thanksgiving dish. A few years ago, to celebrate the diversity of our school community, we spiced it up by asking families to send in food that represented their heritage and changed the name to Heritage Feast. Ms. Warden also created a catchy Heritage Feast jingle that echoes around school all November-long!
Sign up for dishes, volunteering positions and more HERE. We can't wait to see you there!
CERT Needs Victims! (Actors, of course!)
Our students have been working hard at CERT class and and will spend the upcoming weeks preparing for their FINAL Exercise and graduation.
Parents, teachers, non-CERT students and their families are all needed for this exercise. Non-CERT students and parents, please remember that you will be counting on our small but mighty community to be victim actors in your final exercise next semester. So, get your good CERT karma while you can!
Get Ready for REAL Term Internship Season!
Hi Parents,
It's that time of year again! REAL Term High School Internship is just around the corner, and we need your help to make it a success. REAL Term- Realistic Education and Applied Learning is a nine-week program for our junior and seniors that runs Tuesdays only from April 2nd to June 4th, 2024.
As you gather with friends and family this holiday season, we encourage you to casually chat about the opportunity to host a REAL Term intern. It's an incredible chance for your loved ones to provide our students with a valuable learning experience while also gaining fresh perspectives.
By reaching out to your network, you can help us find great hosts and create enriching opportunities for our juniors and seniors this spring. It's a win-win for everyone involved!
If you or someone you know is interested in hosting a REAL Term intern, shoot us an email at REALTerm@gwcommunityschool.com.
Let's make this internship season a fantastic one!
Warm regards,
Alexa C. Warden
