May GCHS Family Newsletter
From the desk of Mrs. Shannon
The Final Countdown
It's hard to believe we have just 19 school days left and only 14 for our seniors! While we are excited about the celebrations (and summer) ahead, we must also remain focused. I've emphasized all year the importance of early communication with teachers, yet many students wait until the last minute. Now is the time to rally behind your students, encourage them not just to finish, but to finish strong. So many students have worked hard all year, learning and growing so much by taking advantage of opportunities provided in and out of our classrooms! Keep up the good work!
Whether you have a freshman or a senior, you know all too well: time is either a thief or a gift—the choice is ours in how we spend it. As summer approaches, I hope you find time to pause and truly enjoy your children in the months ahead.
We have much to be proud of, and I’m excited to share some of the good things happening at Greene County High School in this newsletter.
As always, if you have questions or concerns, please reach out to me or your child's teachers.
