Important Info & GT Open House
Reminder: advisory only happens on B days during 7th period for 98 minutes plus lunch. The Open House on September 15 GT was recorded by Blake Haygood, our district's Advanced Academic Specialist. You can view it below.
Another reminder: if your child is working remotely OR your child is working in-person please make sure they know their GT advisory assignments are to be turned in just like any other class. Per the letter sent home this summer, if your child doesn't participate in GT activities they will be placed on a growth plan. If no progress is made, they will be exited from the program. If you believe GT to be too much work for your child this year, please email their counselor and you can furlough from the program for the rest of the school year and hop back in next year or you can exit altogether. Thank you for your understanding!
