John Glenn High School

In advance of our homecoming football game against Garber on Friday, we wanted to remind our students, parents, fans, and community that there is no parking on the grass areas of our campus. We ask that you please park in the designated parking spaces in the paved lots throughout the campus. We recently added 120 new parking spaces in the northwest corner of the high school next to the baseball and softball fields. With rain in the forecast tomorrow (Thursday), parking on the grass on Friday will most certainly leave damage to those areas that costs our school time and money to repair. Please help spread the word for those that are planning on coming to the game this Friday. Vehicles parked on the grass will be towed at the owners expense.

We are officially half way through the first marking period and that means it is time for our fall parent-teacher conferences. The high school conferences will be taking place this Thursday, October 6th from Noon to 6:00 pm. If you have any questions about parent-teacher conferences please call the main office at 989-684-7510.
