Faculty & Staff Appreciation Luncheon

On this Thursday, May 5th we are excited to treat our amazing faculty and staff to a Cinco de Mayo themed luncheon. The meal will be catered by Moe’s, but we need your help!!


A favorite among all faculty & staff is the delicious dessert spread, generously donated by GWL families. Desserts can be store bought or homemade (if homemade we ask that you please include an index card with the name of the dessert and any major allergens).


We are also requesting beverage donations. In the past families have donated cases of water, pitchers of lemonade or iced tea, jugs of coffee, etc. A cooler of ice is also helpful. We raffle off small plants, local gift cards and other fun items for the faculty and staff.


Monetary donations are welcome to help with decorations and raffles. Please complete the attached google form if you are interested in contributing towards this event.


Faculty and Staff Appreciation Luncheon Donation Form


All donations can be dropped off at the main entrance before 9:30am on May 5th. 

We appreciate your support and look forward to a special day for our GWL staff!!
