Go GI!!
February has been a busy month for the Student Council! We are in the process of planning Charity Week, a week in which we raise money for two local charities. This year, our charities are Feeding Detroit and Downriver, which produces and distributes food to homeless people in the area, as well as Mimi’s Mission, an organization that runs programs to assist autistic individuals and their families. Charity Week will run from March 13-17 and will include events such as a volleyball tournament and jeopardy show featuring GIHS teachers. So far, we have garnered nearly $3,000 in sponsorships from local businesses, and we are excited to continue working with the Grosse Ile community to reach our goal of $10,000 for these two wonderful causes! Please keep an eye out for our upcoming Charity Week events and participate!
Also, from February 25-27, about 20 Student Council members will be attending MASC/MAHS’ Student State Conference in Grand Rapids. At this conference, students will improve their leadership skills by networking with students from all over the state and learning new ways to boost student body spirit and participation.
CONGRATULATIONS to the Varsity Cheer Team on their 1st Place at the Huron League Jamboree .

GIHS National Merit Scholars!!!
Officials of National Merit Scholarship Corporation (NMSC®) have announced the names of the National Merit Scholarship Finalists. These finalists were selected from over 16,000 semifinalists in the 68th Annual National Merit Scholarship Program.
To become a finalist, the semi finalist and a high school official submitted a detailed scholarship application, in which they provided information about the semifinalist’s academic record, participation in school and community activities, demonstrated leadership abilities, employment, and honors and awards received. They must have an outstanding academic record throughout high school and have been recommended by a high school official. Selection was also based on an essay as well as SAT® scores that confirm the student’s earlier performance on the qualifying test.
We are very proud to announce that we have 3 GIHS students that have met the stringent requirements for becoming a National Merit Scholarship Finalist.
Congratulations to the following students:
Serafim Dionyssopoulos
Luke S. Hargrove
Avi N. Patel
