GJHS put on a fantastic performance of Annie Jr. during the Spring 2018 semester. Mr. Cox and all of the students worked very hard to make the production a huge success! Mrs. Wagner and the After School Art students also did a wonderful job on the sets for the show! See a slideshow of pictures from the performances on the right.
