GUSD Appreciation Dinner

Nov. 16

We are feeling very blessed and thankful at GUSD. We have the best students, staff and families.

Over 300 people (staff members and their families) gathered together to celebrate and appreciate each other. The dinner was good and the socializing was even better! All staff, including coaches, were invited to be a part of this event.

Our Governing Board members and administrators donated and gathered donations for raffle items and more than 50 staff members took home appreciation gifts. All staff were given their annual GUSD staff shirt and our Governing Board members and administrators served our staff tonight to show appreciation. Thank you to the community members and businesses that donated so this event could happen. Rainy weather that forced a change in location couldn’t even dampen the spirit of our staff and this event.

It is always great to be a Globe Tiger! Thank you to ALL of our Globe Tiger staff!

Professional development

Professional development is important in every field. Our grounds maintenance team travelled to the University of Arizona today to learn about field maintenance, fertilizer, lining and spraying, and overall lawn maintenance. This crew works hard to keep our grounds and fields looking great and we are happy they are Globe Tigers.
