Don't Be a Slacker!
As your last semester of high school is beginning, please remember to stay strong academically and not slack off. Colleges require that you have us submit a copy of your final transcript to them in June. If your grades have dropped or if you have changed classes without notifying them, they can rescind their acceptance offers during the summer.
Senior Service-Learning Deadlines
The deadline for all students to enter service-learning hours in X2VOL for the summer of 2018 is Friday, January 25.
Approval forms for this school year (2018-2019) must be submitted by the Class of 2019 and hours entered in X2VOL by March 20.
Show Me the Money!
Many of you are beginning to receive scholarship offers. Please do not forget to notify me of the offers. If the offer comes to you as an email, you can simply forward it to me. If it is a letter, just bring it in and I will make a copy of it. GCS recognizes all scholarship offers, even if you do not accept them. Also, as you begin receiving financial aid offers, bring those in as well. GCS recognizes all scholarships, grants, and work study offers that are awarded through the FAFSA. Thank you!
