Environmental Club Earth Challenge:

Did you know that plastic bags start out as fossil fuels and end up as deadly waste in landfills and in the ocean? Fish eat thousands of tons of plastic a year, transferring it up the food chain to bigger fish and marine mammals. Microplastics are also consumed by people through food and in the air. It’s estimated that globally, people consume the equivalent of a credit card of plastic every week and it’s expected that there will be more plastic than fish in the sea by 2050. This week's earth challenge is to be mindful of plastic waste, especially the single-use plastic grocery bags. Instead, choose reusable shopping bags!

 

Tabletop Games Club:

There will be Tabletop Games Club on Wednesday after school in Mrs. Davidson’s room, room 10.

The first dress-up day to honor Mrs. Schneden will be this Friday, May 5th, and the theme is “Dress as your favorite book character.” Let’s get creative GHS staff & students & dress up on Friday! We’ll announce three more Friday Dress up Themes in coming weeks! Stay tuned!
