The student council will be selling foil wrapped chocolate roses for $3.00 a piece in preparation for Valentine’s Day. You can choose from 1 of 3 notes to go with your rose: I’m Grateful for You!, I Appreciate You!, or You’re the Best! Student council members will be taking orders starting Monday February 6. They will be on the stage each morning that week before school until they run out of roses. They will then deliver your rose and note to the person you designate on the card on Valentine’s Day. It must be a student or staff member at GBR for them to deliver to.
