We are excited to offer the Principal’s Pass to our 10th, 11th and 12th grade students that received a 3.3 GPA or higher in the Spring semester.

This Principals Pass will allow students to gain FREE admission to our home athletic events. We have over 200 students that have qualified for this recognition.

If you are a 9th grader, you can earn the Principals Pass by earning a 3.3 GPA or higher this first semester at Combs High School.

For students that have not received their pass, they will be available in the bookstore beginning Monday August 26th.

Combs High School will begin a Peer Tutoring program starting this Tuesday August 20th in Room 406, from 2:30-4:30pm every Tuesday and Thursday. National Honor Society students will serve as our Peer Tutors under the supervision of our Combs Staff Members in our ongoing after school tutoring program. We encourage all students that need extra help to stop by. Bus transportation will be available after the Tuesday and Thursday tutoring sessions.
