Junior Hannah Holdridge was selected to be a part of the Southeastern Theater Conference All-Star Cast. The All-Star Cast is an elite group of fifteen to twenty students who are selected each year from the twenty groups that compete in the SETC competition.
Congratulations to the entire Snoopy cast for a great One-Act season. We enjoyed watching you!

Patrons of the Arts invites the GACS family to a FREE “command performance” of the award-winning one-act play. This invited dress rehearsal will be the last chance to see this year’s award-winning performance at GACS before our students take the show to the Southeastern Theatre Conference in Lexington, Kentucky on March 4th.

This is a free performance, but donations will be happily accepted to help defer travel expenses. For more information about Snoopy! and other upcoming fine arts events, please see our website.

The year has started out nicely. I’ve been cast in a play (the annual One-Act Play, Snoopy!) so the performing continues to be a big part of my life. I’m glad to have the opportunity to return to the stage. Having a class every day (Drama Four) set in an actual theatre is a really glorious thing.

All of my classes, aside from Bible, have around twenty students in them. The energy in the room is always really refreshing. The bonding and relationships are nice.

I’ve already had three tests: an AP government reading quiz, an AP Literature essay test, and an AP calculus concept test. My AP government grade was a pleasant surprise, my AP Literature, unknown, and my AP calculus….disappointing. Looks like I may need someone to help me out with that math stuff…ugh..

Making friends is always happening. The most notable relationships which began this week were with the “girl who said ‘hi’ to me in the hallway between every single period on the first day,” the “my parents are late picking me up too” carpool guy, and the “red head who gave me a chocolate bar.” Yes, I do know their real names, but remembering all the new names isn’t easy especially when the weeks are so hectic. But, the excuse of “I’ve met a thousand people this week, so sorry!” seems to be working nicely.

Tomorrow, the juniors and seniors will travel to a camp site in Georgia for our annual beginning-of-the-year spiritual retreat. Everyone seems really excited about it. I’m gonna go and make some more new friends!

I’ll let you know if I have any success…
