From the Schoolhouse

•  Graduating seniors will be guests of the Baptist, Church of Christ and Methodist churches May 21 for dinner at KC Steakhouse.

•  The GCHS cheerleaders and mascot thank all those who supported the car wash on May 10. Over 40 vehicles were washed, and the money made will help defray expenses for summer camp at Texas A&M. We really appreciate the community support!

            In addition, we will be sponsoring a garage sale on Saturday, June 2, location to be determined. If you have done some spring-cleaning and have items you want to donate, please contact any one of us.  For pickup, call Brecklyn, 354-2694 or Melissa, 535-9005. Look for flyers with further details, and thanks again for your help!  ------  Lori, Bonnie, Linda, Brecklyn, Morgan, Allison and Marianne
