Why attend Foundation meetings?
They're a great way to learn about what’s happening, ask questions, share ideas, connect with other community members and get involved in shaping how funds are used to benefit GMHS students and staff. The Foundation plays a similar role to PTA/PTO’s in elementary and middle school. All are welcome!
Meeting times and locations are subject to change. Please follow school communications for updates.
