Germantown Hills School District #69

Student Council volunteered at Snyder Village on Saturday making Christmas crafts. Thank you to our students for taking time to brighten some of the residents' days!

The U.S. News & World Report just came out with their annual school rankings. Germantown Hills Middle School was #34 out of over 2500 middle schools in Illinois. This is definitely something our community can be proud of. Great job to our students, our staff, and the Germantown community for their support!

Come out and support the #1 seeded, 8th grade Warriors Girls Basketball Team as they take on Canton on Tuesday November 21st at 5:00 PM at GHMS.

The 7th graders won our Trimester 1 House Points contest. Today they had their movie and pizza party. They kicked off the Holidays with the movie Elf!

We will be livestreaming our boys basketball games this year. Thank you to former student Eli Young for being our cameraman! You can watch at the following link: (18) Germantown Hills Middle School Boys Basketball - YouTube

Awesome job Mr. Loring and the 6th Grade Cadet Band on their great performance at the Progress Concert last night!

The forms and money for the GHMS PE skating unit is due tomorrow by the end of the day. Students have been given forms. If a form is needed, they have been emailed to all parents in the middle school. If help with money is needed, please let Coach Davis know and we will make it work. Thank You Coach Ryan Davis

Congratulations to Miss Ingold for being chosen for the News 25 "One Class at a Time"! The news came to videotape Miss Ingold and her 2nd Hour class in action today and give her a check for $1000. I'm not exactly sure when this will air, but keep your eyes peeled for their faces on TV!

A big shout-out to our Student Council members who greeted students as they walked in the doors today as a celebration of World Kindness Day. A great way to start a Monday! Thank you to Mrs. Keys and Mrs. Hensley for setting this up.

Thank you to our middle school teachers who participated in a staff basketball game today! The students loved it and the staff got to show off their athletic abilities (or lack thereof).
