 Are you ready for some butter poached lobster grilled cheese? Truffled parmesan fries? Jalapeno popper burger? All of these gourmet items and more will be available on March 30 when San Diego's most popular gourmet food trucks visit the GHS campus to raise money for teacher mini-grants. Students and staff will have the opportunity to eat lunch from 12-2 with 15% of all proceeds going to the GHS Educational Foundation's teacher mini-grant fund. Then, from 4:00 - 7:00 p.m., the entire community -- parents, alumni, neighbors and foodies -- is invited back on to the campus for dinner, music and other festivities. The event is free of charge, and lunch/dinner costs about the same as it would at your garden-variety fast food restaurant. Come and experience the gourmet food truck phenomenon, and support your teachers at the same time. Invite your friends!

Dear Parent:
The GHS Educational Foundation needs your support to help us reach our goal of $6,000. The funds generated from this appeal will support the students and staff of the community’s oldest high school; this is Grossmont’s 92nd year! At the moment, wonderful improvements to the physical campus are taking place, but at the same time, students and staff are finding fewer resources available to support creative teachers and students. Last fall, recipients of the Foundation’s mini grants were awarded to teachers whose creative projects will directly impact both the guitar and the JROTC programs on campus.
Some of the Foundation’s future projects include student scholarships for college or vocational training after high school along with more teacher mini-grants. Some projects on campus-such as the new tennis courts- are coming up short on necessary funding. The Foundation may need to help fund bleachers, score boards etc. for the future tennis facility. Another planned spring project is to help students who cannot afford to pay for their Advanced Placement tests. Many students who have challenged themselves by taking AP classes may not be able to take the tests without your help! With its motto, the GHS Educational Foundation’s footprint logo encourages students, alumni, and staff to “Take your memories…Leave your footprints.” We need your help to make these dreams a reality!
The Foundation, which is a nonprofit 501c (3) organization, welcomes Pay Pal donations, which may be made directly at FoothillerFoundation.com. You may also mail a check payable to the GHS Educational Foundation to the school at P.O. Box 1043, La Mesa, CA 91944-1043.
