Week of August 28, 2017

Junior Parents:

If you ordered a class ring last school year, Herff Jones will be at Hickory Grove on August 30th during lunch to celebrate with pizza and to pass out the rings. Post cards will be sent home by Herff Jones this week with any outstanding balances. Rings will not be given out with a balance.  If you have any questions, please contact Herff Jones directly at 704-531-0015.

Shopping Boss

What is ShoppingBoss and how does it work? ShoppingBoss is a members-only shopping program/app that works with national retailers and restaurants. You shop like you always have at participating merchants, and when it’s time to pay, instead of giving your credit card to the cashier (or food server), you use your smartphone to buy the merchant’s digital gift card through Shopping Boss. It’s delivered to you instantly, and you use that for the purchase, getting up to 9% cash back.

For a $20 donation, you will receive an average of 6% cash back at over 250 of the biggest National Brands. All the money you make is yours to keep just for supporting HGCS! Half of each ShoppingBoss sold goes right back to HGCS to support academics, fine arts and athletics. Our goal for this fundraiser is 100% participation from every student TK - 12th grade, with each student selling at least 2 ShoppingBoss codes.

Be on the lookout next week for the official launch of the ShoppingBoss program but for now, watch this quick video to learn more about this program and how you can support our school!
