Our course description guide for this school year indicates that all students enrolled in an AP class are expected to take the AP exam in May.

To that end, if a student that has enrolled in an AP class has not committed to taking the AP end-of-course test by making either a full or partial payment for the exam by Oct 20th, he/she will notice that his/her course name will change to Honors instead of the AP course name. The Honors class will earn the same weighted credit as the AP course and will not affect the student’s GPA.

Please make checks payable to GHS. Payment plans are available if you want to spread the payment for these tests over several months. You may contact your child’s administrator if you have questions.

Fee structure:
$43 per test for English, math, and science tests
$86 per test for social studies tests

Monday: Wacky tacky day
Tuesday: 80’s day
Wednesday: Twin day
Thursday: Hat and sunglasses day (with $1 donation for Habitat for Humanity)
Friday: Spirit day and pep rally
Saturday: Homecoming dance, 8:00p.m. to 11p.m. Attire is semiformal. Tickets sold during lunches ($10 per person)

Due to paving in and around the Courthouse area, buses may be delayed at the end of the school day on October 7.
