Good Morning Charger Families, the Goodridge School is updating our school commercial that airs prior to movie previews at Fall Cinema in Thief River Falls. The commercial may be posted on our facebook page, school website, and air on our garden valley channel as well. A Falls Cinema staff member will be at the school on Wednesday, November 30th to film new footage for the commercial. Prior to finalizing the commercial, we will receive prior approval from all parents of students who are visible in any footage for their consent for their son/daughter to be in the commercial. If a parent is not comfortable with their son/daughter being in the commercial we totally understand and will omit them from any footage. If you already know you do not want your son/daughter to be in this commercial, please call the school and notify us. Have a great day and Happy Thanksgiving!
