Goochland High students Alexis Phillips and Addison Bryce are sharing their love of food—and culture—through Dawg Treats, a student-led culinary project! From calzones and beef tacos to tres leches cake, they’re bringing international flavors to our home football games.
Proceeds support Goochland’s culinary program, funding student field trips and hands-on learning opportunities. You can find the retrofitted food bus near the flagpole from gate opening until the end of the third quarter. Cash and credit accepted!
Come out, grab a bite, and taste the world with Dawg Treats! 🌟





Leading up to Yorktown Victory Day (October 19), this week celebrates the Reading Revolution—encouraging students to learn about the people, places, and events of the Revolutionary era, freedom and democracy, the Constitution, and the civic principles that helped shape our nation.
Students listened to Henry and the Cannons: A True Story of the American Revolution by Don Brown and explored how one man’s determination helped change the course of history. ❤️💙🤍




Fifth grade students kicked off their first book club meetings by choosing a book that interested them, joining classmates who picked the same title, and reading parts of their book aloud together. Each group then set an independent reading goal for the week.
Next week, these young readers will meet again to discuss what they’ve read and set new goals as they continue their literary adventures! 🌟

You'll find it at Goochland Elementary—it can't be beat!
