GHS Senior Class is hosting a Craft & Vendor Fair on Saturday November 23, 2024 from 9a.m to 4p.m. This will be held at Galatia High School. We will feature local artisans for all your gift shopping. We have a gym full of vendors. We will have concessions including delicious BBQ by Mr. Billy Carlton, raffles, and a wide range of silent auction items. Come and join us. There are items for males and females of all ages.

Senior Parents. The craft/vendor fair for our class is this Saturday. Students can earn profit for their senior trip starting at 7 a.m. helping vendors unload. They will pack up around closing time at 4p.m. Students may also work concessions. Students will need to sign in and out that day with Mrs. Disney or Mr. Jones. Parents may also help to earn money for their child. Another way to earn profit is to bring a item, or basket for the silent auction. If you send an item, whatever it sells for will go into that students account. Contact Mrs. Disney-Walrack if you have any questions.

There have been some changes and rescheduled dates in junior high basketball, so attached is an updated schedule.

Come join us for the Polar Express Experience. Tickets are $10 a person. Final Sales will be December 10th. If your child would like to come, but does not have to money right now.
