Today


GOOD MORNING AND HAPPY FRIDAY!

Graham Steer Basketball- Congrats on the Bi-District win over Sweetwater and good luck this evening at Aledo vs Midlothian Heritage!

Student Work Showcase- Thanks a ton to Gary Browning and team for a successful Student Work Showcase this past Tuesday night.  We had a great crowd and it went off without a hitch.  It was great to have the elementary campuses participate this year.  The first grade Penguins, 3rd grade Geometric cities, 4th grade math lock boxes and fifth grade SS tables were very popular.  GJHS had great representation as well.  Mrs. Richardson science students were true scientists and taught the crowd.  We also had some really fun things like the Woodland GT Escape Room (Alamo).  The line for the escape room was long all night and ran past the end of the event.  GHS had band, choir, PLTW (Pig Lungs are cool), CTE and Culinary Arts was a hit as usual.

GPEF Grant Reminder- Grant applications are due by 2:00 pm on Friday, March 9.

Steer Soccer- Good luck at Gainesville!

Lady Blues Soccer- At home this evening vs Rider. Good luck!

Lady Blues Golf- Good luck at the 4A Region 1 preview in Lubbock!

Lady Blues & Graham Steer Track- Best of luck at Mineral Wells this Saturday!

Steer Baseball- At home at 11 on Saturday vs Bowie.  Good luck!


Today

I have responsibilities to fulfill today.

Today I get to choose what kind of day I am going to have.

Today I can complain because the weather is rainy (icy) or I can be thankful that the grass is getting watered for free.

Today I can feel sad that I don't have more money or I can be glad that my finances encourage me to plan my purchases wisely and guide me away from waste.

Today I can grumble about my health or I can rejoice that I am alive.

Today I can lament over all that my parents didn't give me when I was growing up or I can feel grateful that they allowed me to be born.

Today I can cry because roses have thorns or I can celebrate that thorns have roses.

Today I can mourn my lack of friends or I can excitedly embark upon a quest to discover new relationships.

Today I can whine because I have to go to work or I can shout for joy because I have a job to do.

Today I can complain because I have to go to school or eagerly open my mind and fill it with rich new tidbits of knowledge.

Today I can murmur dejectedly because I have to do housework or I can feel honored because I am blessed with shelter for my mind, body and soul.

Today stretches ahead of me, waiting to be shaped. And here I am, the sculptor who gets to do the shaping.

What today will be like is up to me. I get to choose what kind of day I will have!

Have a nice day...unless you have already made other plans!
