Happy Sunday GRHS Longhorns,

This week we spotlighted Character Counts and Pink Out! This upcoming week we are focusing on Red Ribbon Week and Choosing to live a drug free life!

Shout out to the Ranch Bus Drivers! We were able to show some appreciation for all their hard work it takes each day getting our Longhorns to and from school safely. We hope they enjoyed the treats!

Best of luck to our Boys and Girls XC teams and Coaches as they head to the 6A Regional Meet on Monday in Huntsville! We are so proud of you and can't wait to see you shine! Bring home the hardware!

Thanks for those that attended the Maroon Track Town Hall Meeting in the Cafeteria on Monday. Dr. Nivens presented a more in-depth look at what all Bond 2022 will cover and the "why" behind it. I have a link to his presentation for you to look at if you were not able to make it.

Reread and make sure you are strictly following the door safety and dress code expectations. This is non-negotiable. You do not have to LIKE or AGREE, but you do have to follow it! Also, if you are CHOOSING to bring your airpods to school you are choosing to keep up with them and be responsible if they go missing. Our admin team will not be investigating this, as it pulls us out of instructional walks in classrooms and ARD/504 meetings. Moving forward, if you bring them, you are responsible and accountable for keeping up with them. If you are worried about losing them, leave them at home. Thanks for your understanding!

Weekly ID Reminder:

ID's MANDATORY! $5 replacement charges in place now. The first free ID (lanyard and protective case) have all been passed out. This MUST be worn visibly on the top half of your body EVERY DAY! I have been announcing this EVERY SINGLE MORNING and periodically through the day for the past 8 weeks. If you do not have one, this is on you. You have had MANY opportunities to correct this, so now it's your turn to be responsible. Please scan the QR code in this newsletter, in the classroom, or hanging in the front of the school to buy one. We will continue to do ID sweeps, and anyone without one will be charged $5 and given a new one. This is NOT optional, as it is part of dress code. If you keep losing it you will KEEP being charged. You (and your parents) will be getting weekly "fine" email reports, and your parents will be called at 3 weeks and 6 weeks. Not paying is not an option, and there will be a hold placed on your final semester grades and exemptions will NOT be an option.

Student badges will serve as the student ID and SmartTag all in one card. With this ID our GRHS students are able to ride the bus, purchase breakfast/lunch, check out library books, able to use their personal devices (phones/airpods, etc) during lunch and advisory.

Refusing to wear your ID visibly on the top half of your body, is not an option, and will result in the consequences stated on the consequence chart below. Please make sure you are wearing your OWN ID.

Every GRHS student has been gifted an ID, protective plastic cover, and lanyard. It is imperative that our Longhorns adhere to this expectation, as this is part of the daily dress code for staff and students. If you need another badge or lose this one there is a $5 replacement cost. This is NOT optional, it is part of dress code. You can pay by cash or it will be charged to your student library account, for EACH replacement you need. Please note that a hold will be placed on your semester grades, transcripts, and exemptions if this fine is not cleared.

Need a REPLACEMENT ALREADY?

If you are needing to PURCHASE ANOTHER student ID, please use the QR code (above) to request one. You can either pay $5 cash when you pick it up, or we will charge your school library account if you do not have cash. Emails will be sent in Skyward to parent and student emails each time you are charged.

Questions and Documents that you will need to have ready when you start the ONLINE process:

1. Copy of Drivers License UPLOADED (NO PERMITS allowed)
2. CURRENT Insurance Card UPLOADED (with GRHS student LISTED AS DRIVER)
3. Vehicle Make, Model, Year, Color, and License Plate Number
4. 1st color zone selection, 2nd color zone selection.
5. Parking Pass Payment Receipt UPLOADED
6. Rules and Regulations Acknowledgment read and signed

If you are needing a VOE, we are able to help you by clicking this button above to request! Please allow 48 hour (business day) turn around on all requests. You will be picking these up in the student service window, once they are ready!

Our Admin Team is ready and willing to support! We are available (via email) during business hours and will be promptly getting back with you for assistance.
