GHS Weekly Newsletter
Good Afternoon GHS Family!
We had a wonderful week with English I and II EOC testing, Medal of Honor Campus Visit and many more events, awards and accomplishments. See our Leopard Spotlight section below the details!
This upcoming week may be a shortened one (no school on Friday) but in true Spring fashion it's a busy one. See our Upcoming Events section for details.
This week we end our fifth six weeks grading period and with a little under 30 days left in the school year, it's time for our Leopard Learners to finish strong. We encourage you to connect to your student's attendance and grade and monitor their progress on parent portal. If you need assistance in accessing the portal, please call our front office at 940.665.5528
As always, thank you for allowing us to be part of your student's journey. Please do not hesitate to reach out if you have any questions, concerns or ideas you would like to share!
