Daddy/Daughter Banquet is tomorrow, and we can't wait for a great night of fun. Please read this post for a few details to ensure the evening runs smoothly.
5-8 will need to arrive around 6:15 to the gym parking lot. We will ONLY allow people to come in through the back doors by the gym for the safety and integrity of the event. Check-in will be at the door. There will be two tables for registration split by the FIRST name of the adult bringing the student(s). One table for A-M another for N-Z.
Please encourage your students to dance and spend time with you! This is an event for you and your student - keep that in mind! We will announce all 8th grade students and their escorts at 6:45. We will call for you out into the gym lobby.
Pictures will be delivered to homeroom teachers a couple of weeks after the event. We are aware that pictures may not have made it to you last year, but we are working hard this year to ensure that photos are delivered.
If you plan to pay at the door, you must have exact change. We will not be able to give change at the door. The door charge will be $25.
Please email rbateman@gcssd.org if you have any questions!
