Greater Johnstown School District

District VI T- Shirts

District 6 Basketball Championship T-shirts orders will be taken on Tuesday and Wednesday, during all 3 lunch periods, in the concession stand outside of the gymnasium. The cost of the shirts are $5.00 and must be paid at the time of ordering. This is to ensure that everyone who orders a shirt gets one that fits. We will not be ordering more shirts than people order. If you don’t order one on Tuesday or Wednesday then you will not be able to purchase one at a later date. Be sure to wear your blue on Friday against Lancaster Catholic.

Thank you, and Go Trojans!

JHS teachers help build Pride and Tradition at JHS

JHS staff raised over $250.00 for all students to get into the Boys varsity basketball game against Bishop McCort for free. The Trojans won 62-39.

Excerpt from the Tribune Democrat 2/7/09:
 

"To increase the atmosphere our teachers took up a collection," Roman said. "They raised $250. The first 250 students got in for free. Our student section was awesome. That helped create momentum for our kids. It was great."
