Project Glam is a new program that was started
at the High School by YLA and advisers Cassie Griffith, Kristin DeWees. Project
Glam does drawings for hair and makeup to be done before prom or other dances.
Also, people donate dresses so others who do not have a dress for a dance can;
there were about 40 dresses brought in. This is similar to the school’s
Cinderella’s closet.
Junior Presley Fisher talked to some of the
teachers at Point Pleasant High School in January and came to Griffith with the
idea of what is now Project Glam. Griffith talked to some of the administrators
who were in charge at Point Pleasant and began the project in March.
“It feels amazing to know that there are
people here that care enough to give to the program, and they understand some
girls don’t have that option. It feels good to give girls the opportunity to
feel like a princess for a night,” said Fisher.
A raffle was held where any student could
put their name in to get their hair and makeup done for free by the cosmetology
students from Roane County Vo-Tech. The Jackson county cosmetology students will
likely return the favor by doing hair and makeup for the Roane County High
School. Because this is a new program, not many students put their name in the
drawing. All four won.
“There were about 20 girls in my room on
Saturday. They had a lot of fun,” said Griffith.
Project Glam will be continued next year and
hopefully many more years to come. Griffith and DeWees hope Project Glam will expand
and be well known throughout the school. Since it is still very new they were pleased
with the participation this year. The people involved were optimistic to
continue this program in the future.
One way to do this is to attend Study Hall during lunch, before the next test. Another, powerful way is to make sure that they bring their COMPLETED NOTES to class on the day of the exam. To aid Students in completing their Notes, Mr. Hatfield makes them available on-line through this blog and gives a Study Guide for Students to complete to demonstrate that they have the Notes, and know what to do with them. Bring evidence that you have prepared for the test, students, and you will be rewarded! abc ya play games , friv play , play minecraft games online
