Movie Night
Save the date for Lion family movie night!
Field Day
Field Day is almost here!
🎉 We’d love for parents to come cheer on our scholars during morning carline—just wear your scholar’s grade-level color/s and bring the energy! We also need a couple of volunteers to help decorate the day before, right after school.
👉 Please note: parents who volunteer to cheer cannot also volunteer to help during Field Day. Thank you for your support—our GH community makes it all possible! ❤️
School Picture Volunteer
Please sign up to help out our teachers and scholars during picture day.

Upper School
Picture Day Volunteers
We have two different time slots that we need three volunteers to assist with picture day at the upper school. You are welcome to volunteer for both time slots if you'd like! You **must** be an approved volunteer to participate. If you need to verify your volunteer status, please email ghvpvoluc@gmail.com. Remember, approval is required each year; being approved last year doesn't carry over.
Teacher/Staff Birthday
Each grade at GHUS is asked to celebrate the birthdays of their classroom teachers and additional staff members by providing them with their favorite lunch. Please email the teacher/staff member you signed up for to coordinate drop off date and lunch preference. We truly value your generosity and kindly request that you keep the costs under $25.
Please review the available slots below and click on the button to sign up. Thank you!

Calling on our Houses to express their love and support for our teachers and staff during their monthly seminars.
