GMHS Morning Message 5/1/20 https://drive.google.com/a/granbyschools.org/file/d/1rLx0qMZzpCJCUlZRI536gq5p4I2gvBxB/view?usp=sharing THREE WAYS TO BE GRANBY BEARS THIS WEEK: 1) GMHS Students and Staff: Nursing homes and other healthcare facilities for the elderly have been hit hard by the coronavirus. In response to the pandemic, Mr. Neal, GMHS Social Worker and Behavioral Health Officer with the 182nd Medical Company MA National Guard, has been with his National Guard Unit helping at the Soldiers' Home in Holyoke for several weeks. To raise spirits, we would like to rally students and staff to write cards to residents and staff at the Soldier’s Home. It can be a "Thank you for serving our country", a "Just wanted to say hello and let you know I am thinking about you" or a "Thank you for taking care of our veterans" kind of note. One of next week's GMHS spirit challenges involves submitting a selfie with an essential worker. Consider submitting a picture of yourself with the card addressed to "Soldiers' Home Staff". Your message does not have to be lengthy. Cards can be store bought or homemade. Place your card in an envelope with the designated recipient (Veteran or Staff) written on the outside. Place your card inside another envelope and mail it to the high school. The cards will be collected at the high school and delivered to the Soldiers' Home as one care package. Please mail your card(s) by next Friday, May 8. Please consider brightening someone's day by sending a card, or even two! Mail your card(s) to: Granby Memorial High School 315 Salmon Brook Street Granby, CT 06035 Attn: Soldiers' Home Card Project If you have any questions, please feel free to reach out to Morgan Wichmann (20wichmannm@granbyschools.org) or Mrs. Burke (burkel@granby.k12.ct.us). 2. The students of the Bridges Program have put together a Virtual Spirit Week to keep our spirits high! Post your pictures online and tag @gmhsyrbk2020 on Instagram! Let's see your creativity! 3) Happy Teacher Appreciation Week! - Students, check your emails!
