📣GRHS Lift-A-Thon📣 The Gordon-Rushville strength and conditioning classes are doing a lift-a-thon this year to help raise money for upgrades needed in the weight room. The link https://app.99pledges.com/fund/GRweights will take you to our fundraiser page. While our students are reaching for their goals in the weight room, you can help us reach our goal of adding more weight equipment and new flooring by supporting them through this fundraiser. You can personalize your donation to motivate your student to do their best or send it in anonymously and show your support for the whole school. We appreciate every donation, and we hope you know how much it means to us and future Mustangs! #UnitedAsOne #StrongerTogether
