Glendale High School PTSA
"Building A Better School Community...TOGETHER!"
Weekly Update 10/3 - 10/7
 
Thank you to all the volunteers who have signed up to help with concessions for our home football games so far this year.  MORE HELP IS NEEDED for the remainder of the football season, especially Friday, October 7th which is Middle School Band Night and Friday, November 4th which is HOMECOMING.

If you can volunteer for a couple of hours in the concessions booth, please add your name to our
SIGN UP GENIUS.  You MUST be a PTSA member in order to help with concessions.  Students will receive community service hours for their time.  (Students must also be PTSA members).  You may join the PTSA that evening for $10 per adult and $6 per student.


THANK YOU!
