Attention students: For class color day on Thursday, Sept. 25, students should wear their class Homecoming T-shirt to school that day OR wear a color shirt that goes with their class color. Seniors - black, juniors - white, sophomores - orange and freshmen - blue.

Students will only be allowed in the class photo if they are wearing the correct color shirt. Photos will be taken during the first half of second hour on Thursday in the gym. Students will be dismissed by class with an announcement from the main office. Students will be asked to promptly return to their classes immediately following the photo.

The impact club is looking for donations of baked goods for a bake sale at this Friday's football game. Donations can be dropped off at the high school office or the GKHS library starting Thursday, 9/25, or brought right to the table near concessions on the night of the game.

The GKHS and GKMS Community Impact Clubs are collecting new and gently used Halloween costumes. All Donations can be brought into the middle/high school front office or the Genoa Public Library by Wednesday, November 5.

In collaboration with Rooted For Good - Genoa, the Impact Clubs will be hosting a Halloween Costume Distribution on Monday, October 6, 2025 from 3:00-5:00 PM at Rooted For Good - Genoa.

Coffee delivery on the go! 🚗☕ Our High School Coffee Club, The GK Wake Up, traveled to the middle school yesterday to serve up coffee and smiles to the staff. We love the energy they bring wherever they go, throughout the school year they will be stopping at all the buildings!
