April Regular School Board Meeting Notice. April 14th, 2026 at GHS 5:30pm

What better way to enjoy these beautiful spring days than by taking our learning outdoors? Sixth grade is currently preparing to write an argumentative essay in Wit & Wisdom. As part of this process, students are focusing on developing strong claims, supporting them with evidence, and clearly explaining their reasoning.

Don't forget to order your 2025-2026 yearbook! The books should be here at the end of May and are $50 per book if you pay prior to the pick up day, otherwise they are $55 (if you are paying the day of). We will notify everyone of the specific pick up date when we get a delivery date! You can order on the school website or write a check to GHS.

GHS 3rd quarter honor roll and high honor roll awarded students!
