Scenes from the final PBIS assembly of the year, including recognizing the members of the PBIS student committee for next school year!
The Graham Color Blast 1-mile and 5K run/walk will take place on May 24th. The Color Blast will be similar to a "Color Run" that many have seen happening in communities, just not here in St. Paris, YET!
Our goal is to create a fun community event that can also raise funds to cover student organization membership and event costs. Each year, GMS spends thousands of dollars from the Principal's Fund for students to be part of organizations and the several that have corresponding competitions. This event is to prevent students from having to pay those themselves. We want students to have as many opportunities as possible!
Registration options include with or without a t-shirt. If you plan to purchase a shirt, that registration needs to be completed by Sunday, May 11th in order to guarantee the shirt printing.
We hope you can join us as a participant in the run/walk event, or even as a spectator that will take in the event, cheer on others, maybe toss some color powder, or take in the vendors that will be on campus.
