GHS Community,

This week's schedule is ABBAB.

ACT Information

It’s ACT Week for our Juniors! The ACT Plus Writing is the State Accountability test for our school, and we appreciate your support in ensuring our Tigers are well rested and ready to show what they know!

On Tuesday, March 10, 2026, all 11th grade students will take the ACT with Writing. This assessment includes five sections: English, Math, Reading, Science, and Writing, and the full administration takes approximately 3 hours and 45 minutes to complete.

Please note that all other grade levels will be E-Learning on Tuesday. Teachers will be providing coursework in Canvas.

11th Grade Students should plan to report to school prior to 8:30 AM, and remain at school for the entire testing session.

Students involved in testing may bring in a checkout note to Mrs. Varmette in our Attendance Office up until the end of the day on Monday, March 9th. Any students not checking out after the ACT will remain at school until the end of the school day.
