We're glad you have stopped to see our school district's website. Our district enrolls over 1,250 pre-school through the 12th graders in three buildings.

The Go Warriors! Go Green! energy conservation initiative is a District-wide effort involving all staff and students. It has been proven that school districts can substantially decrease energy costs by demonstrating easy, everyday ways to use less energy. Efforts include monitoring computers to be sure they are turned off at night, less lighting is used in corridors throughout the day, building temperatures have been decreased at times when students are not in class, and reducing idling time on our buses.

We hope to see you there!
- Helping us market and promote the event. Tables will again cost $235.00 if the participants decorate the table and $275.00 if the foundation decorates. Perhaps a challenge between the buildings on who can decorate the best table? We would love your participation!
- Last year several of you donated very unique and clever items for both the silent and live auction events.
- If possible would you consider making similar donations? Also, we want to expand on the “baskets” and next year these will be raffled off. We could use many more silent and live auction donations as well.
- We really would like to offer some bigger ticket items such as “Time Shares” or other similar packages. If you know of someone who may be willing to consider such a donation please get us their contact information.
- Any input you have that would help make this event even better would be greatly appreciated by the GLEF Board.
