Fundraiser

We encourage all students to participate and show their school pride by collecting donations from family, friends, and the community. If each student contributes approximately $50, we can easily reach this target! Donate from September 3rd through September 23rd to be eligible for the prizes.

The funds raised will be used for the following items:

  1. Digital Signage on Old Norcross: Our road sign is beyond repair, and we need to replace it to share good news with the community!
  2. Flexible Classroom Seating in the SRC: We need to update our outdated tables and chairs for teachers and students!
  3. New Speakers for the Cafe: Our current sound system is almost beyond repair. We need a new system that will support the many school events throughout the year.
  4. New Tent for the Patio: The current patio tent will need to be replaced soon.
  5. Laptop Charging Towers: We need to replace broken charging stations, and teachers are always requesting more for their classrooms to support laptop use during instruction.
  6. Supplies for GSMST Mural: We are getting a student designed mural installed and will need supplies!
  7. PBIS Student Celebrations & Prizes: Our PBIS Committee needs funding to purchase food for the Fall and Spring student celebration. They also need funds to purchase additional student prizes throughout the year!
  8. As well as to support ALL GSMST TEACHERS and their respective Department Needs.
