GSS Royalty Leads the Krewe of GSS

Moved indoors because of cold temperatures and a puddled parade route, the Krewe of GSS was as exciting as ever with GSS Royalty leading the festivities.  This year's queen, Ms. Linda, danced the hallways and cafeteria with King, Mr. Chris, by her side.  Don't let the suit fool you, Mr. Chris is no court jester!  Being led by the joyous sounds of a second line band, the court and young students paraded around campus throwing beads, Mardi Gras trinkets, and the very special GSS medallion bead.   Family and friends were on hand for the celebration as the students danced their way into the Mardi Gras break.  Happy Mardi Gras!
