2018 GCPS Spring Testing Calendar
We are excited to announce that the 2018 GCPS Spring Testing Calendar has been finalized. We will provide more details in the coming weeks, so stay tuned.
Senior Signing Day
On Tuesday, May 1, during Bulldog Block, the Class of 2018 will gather in the auditorium for Senior Signing Day. Not to be confused with scholarship signing, this day is dedicated to all seniors to declare their plans after graduation. Going to college? Work? Military? This day is for you, so come out and proudly sport your college wear, military shirts, or some other indicator of your future plans! Seniors will make their mark for the school to see, celebrate with friends, write brief thank you notes, take selfies, gather for a class casual photo, and really just enjoy each others company for one of the last times prior to graduation. Seniors, you’ve nearly fulfilled your commitment to graduation made in 2014…come celebrate! (Inside scoop: Parents can catch a glimpse of all the fun by searching #GHS2018Signs on Twitter.)

GHS, VA State Police, and AAA present iDrive On The Go!
GHS is partnering with VA state police and AAA to bring our 10th graders a valuable driving educational experience. Students will be participating in hands on driver training, including an impaired driving golf cart course, field sobriety tests, airbag deployment, as well as other activities to emphasize safe and undistracted driving. All 10th graders will have an opportunity to take part in the various activities and speak to State troopers and AAA representatives. Due to a demonstration for our driver’s education classes, a basketball court-sized portion of the GHS student parking lot will be unavailable for student parking on Wednesday, April 25th; however, there will still be room for all student drivers in the lot.
