Mrs. Hart's class had a smashing end to their Halloween day! We hope your day was just as fun and you had all treats and no tricks!
Yesterday, our Spanish 2 students went on a field trip to the Michelson Museum of Art to learn about "el Día de los Muertos."!
Today, our Anatomy & Physiology classes are making skeletons out of candy to get into that spooky Halloween mood!
Since we enjoyed costumes on last Friday, we are NOT wearing costumes tomorrow. Please send your child in school approved attire.
Thank you!
Some teachers opted to give out their class Hall-o-grams today instead of tomorrow, the majority will receive theirs tomorrow!
The issues on campus have been resolved and we will see everyone at school tomorrow morning!
Due to technical difficulties beyond our control, school has been cancelled today. We will resume our normal schedule tomorrow.

The costume contest was a huge success, and we had a ton of participants this year! Congratulations to all of our winners! This is just a small sample of all the students and teachers involved! We will update this post with additional photos as they come in from our staff, but thank you to all the students and parents that helped pull off one of our favorite events!

There has been a change in schedule for next week's Volleyball game; Due to scheduling conflicts, the game has been moved from Tuesday 10/29 to Monday 10/28. This is also our Senior Night and we would like for all to come out and support the Ladycats and our three wonderful Seniors: Blair Cope, Sophie Hughes and Emma Newman!
Yesterday, our 8th graders were invited to Panola College for their Preview Day, where the students learned about the multiple CTE pathways available at high school and college, as well as potential careers they could pursue in their future! We are very proud of our 8th graders' behavior while at Panola College, and cannot wait for what they decide to do once they finish their high school career at Gary!

The Junior class would also like to give a shout out to all of our prize sponsors, thank you so much for supporting our class!
Each year first year members of Gary FFA are tasked with learning the FFA Creed. The FFA Creed was written in 1928 and the words and meaning of those words still hold true in our lives today. Learning the creed isn’t an easy task, but students are challenged to do so and the student who memorizes it “first” receives their FFA Jacket paid for by Gary FFA as a reward.
This year, Emma Young has learned the FFA Creed by memory and will compete in the Creed Speaking Contest at the district FFA Contest against 23 other schools. That contest is based on knowing the words perfectly, giving emphasis to those words and answering questions based on the meaning of the words. Congrats to Emma on this accomplishment!
