Students can receive community service hours for volunteering for clean-up. All student volunteers should meet Mrs. Garner at the top of the student section beside the press box immediately after the football game ends.

Volunteers Needed for Fall Season
Shopping Boss Fundraiser
HGCS hosts two major fundraisers each year to support our growth in the areas of academics (technology), fine arts and athletics from TK all the way to 12th grade. We are excited to introduce a new opportunity this fall called ShoppingBoss!
What is ShoppingBoss and how does it work? ShoppingBoss is a members-only shopping program/app that works with national retailers and restaurants. You shop like you always have at participating merchants, and when it’s time to pay, instead of giving your credit card to the cashier (or food server), you use your smartphone to buy the merchant’s digital gift card through Shopping Boss. It’s delivered to you instantly, and you use that for the purchase, getting up to 9% cash back.
For a $20 donation, you will receive an average of 6% cash back at over 250 of the biggest National Brands. All the money you make is yours to keep just for supporting HGCS! Half of each ShoppingBoss sold goes right back to HGCS to support academics, fine arts and athletics. Our goal for this fundraiser is 100% participation from every student TK - 12th grade, with each student selling at least 2 ShoppingBoss codes.
Be on the lookout next week for the official launch of the ShoppingBoss program but for now, watch this quick video to learn more about this program and how you can support our school!
