Senior Clare Cordell and Junior Izzy Mikkelsen attended the Humanity Launch Student Leadership Academy in Sioux Falls. The girls had a great time networking and building servant leadership skills with students from across SD! The girls are pictured with Gregg and Kim, the founders of The Humanity Launch. We look forward to their return to GHS for another assembly with our 6-12 grade students in September!

Several of our talented student actors attended the Black Hills Playhouse Camp in July and performed The Little Mermaid. Gwen Quiett, Jude Holzwarth, Cerissa Chase, Ariel Lemler, and Gabby Goebel all shared their talent and developed their skills! Way to go, Battlers!

Kyley Saltsman received the Jessie Award during our Leadership retreat banquet!! “Just like Jessie the yodeling cowgirl from Toy Story, this award goes to someone who lights up every room with their boundless energy, positive attitude, and can-do spirit. Whether they're cheering on a teammate, jumping into a challenge with both boots on, or spreading joy like sunshine, this individual reminds us all that enthusiasm is contagious and heart is everything.” Congrats Kyley!!💙💛 We are so happy for you!!

The Gettysburg School District will host a special meeting tomorrow, Thursday, July 24th at 7:30 pm in the chorus room. Please see the Website, App, or Facebook for the agenda.
