NJHS Holiday Hygiene Drive Begins
The Glades Day School National Junior Honor Society (NJHS) invites you to make a difference this holiday season by helping to gift personal hygiene bags to those in need at the Light House Cafe and Ella's Closet. From November 29th through December 16th, the NJHS has set a school goal to obtain at least 1,000 personal hygiene items. If this goal is achieved, all Lower and Upper School students will be awarded a “We are not Sweating Semester Exams” day, allowing all students to wear sweatpants on Friday, December 17th. In addition, the Upper School and Lower School class that brings in the most items per student will receive a pajama dress-down day. For more information, email Shelly Burch at sburch@gladesdayschool.com.

#GivingTuesday
GivingTuesday is a global day of generosity! This year, Glades Day School will take part in this movement with hopes to raise funding to complete Phase IV of Campus Security. In 2018, we began Phase I of our security plan, and that year's Call from the Heart funded a new intercom system. Since then, we have completed Phase II and III by hiring a full-time security officer and installing 72 security cameras throughout campus. During the 17th Annual Spring Gala, we presented Phase IV of Campus Security as part two of our Call from the Heart. This phase includes electric entry and exit gates, a keyless access control system for high traffic entrances, and fencing for the north side of the school. On Tuesday, November 30th, we will be campaigning to raise the additional funding needed to move forward with Phase IV. We thank you in advance for your endless generosity and look forward to being a part of this opportunity for people around the world to come together to thank, help, give, and show kindness.
