GHS Econ students participated in Reality Check Day as part of their learning on personal finance. Our partners from Educators Credit Union presented the exercise. Students were assigned a career, salary, and family status. Each then visited various stations to learn about budgeting and how individual purchases (and unexpected life circumstances - FATE!) impact your personal 'bottom line'. Many thanks to the volunteers, staff, and team from Educators who provide this eye-opening experience to our students. #LearnGrowEngageGreendale #CultivatingExcellence

Coach Smith came to speak to the GHS Project Lead the Way Human Body Systems (HBS) students. She is the Assistant Director of Sports Performance at Marquette University. She talked about her career pathway and how she uses content students have learned in HBS every day to help athletes compete at their highest potential. She talked a lot about how she uses physics and HBS and that they use a lot of data to make sure athletes are in their peak performance range and how to adapt when they are below or higher than that biometric range or recovering from injury! Super interesting and helpful!

In Indianapolis at Bands of America competition, our Marching Band created their absolute best performance of the season! Their showing at BoA was a huge improvement over last year and they loved entertaining the audience with their Snow Angel production. While scores and placements are relative from year to year, there is no denying an almost 8-point jump from last year, along with a jump of 26 places overall (85th overall in 2024 to 59th overall this year). A huge THANK YOU to everyone who made the trip down to Indy, whether in volunteer or spectator fashion. We’re not done yet – on to Pasadena and California for the Parade of Roses.
