To Be a Champion...A warrior… A fighter… With the Champions program, we are able to help students stop slipping and start gripping their education and their future. At-risk students are not the students that typically ask for help, but they are the ones that need it the most. They are the students that slip through the cracks, and are least likely to graduate in four years. Students are provided with customized academic goals that they work toward for the duration of the semester. Once final grades are posted, successful students are invited to celebrate their achievements, share a meal, and receive their rewards at the Champions banquet. | What the Champions are Saying about the Program“Champions is a very inspiring program that really pushes you to be your best, I loved being able to meet with a mentor weekly and it helped me see that I was capable of a lot more. Even if I didn’t meet my goal my grades still improved and I was still proud of myself for the work I put in” – McKenzie “When I first started the Champions program two year my grades were C’s and D’s. This program motivates you to do your best” … “hard work pays off” … “I went from 1.2 to 2.0 thanks to this program”- Zyniah | Celebrating Our Champions This is the 6th semester of Champions, and there are currently 73 students in the program, a number that has significantly increased each semester the program has run. Approximately 25% of all our Champions have met their goal and receive a monetary scholarship. At least 50% of the Champions improve their grades each semester, and over 90% want to continue on with a new goal and challenge the following semester. We wouldn't be able to celebrate or even have the Champions program without the gracious donations to the program through our Champions Golf Outing. If you are an alumni, this is a great way to give back to your roots, your school, your community, and make a mark that could last for generations! Please consider golfing, sponsoring, or doing both for this great cause. |
To Be a Champion...
A warrior… A fighter…
more importantly, at Garden City High School, a Champion is a student who commits to working with a mentor dedicated to helping that student succeed. GCHS Champions promise to do their best to achieve previously unimaginable goals. A Champion receives a financial incentive each semester his or her goals are achieved.
