As we enter the final stretch of the first marking period, I want to remind our students and families that October 28 marks the end of Quarter 1! Students should continue working with their teachers to complete any missing or outstanding assignments. Attendance also remains a priority, as excessive absences can impact a student's ability to earn course credit. Families are encouraged to review our attendance policy using the links below.


We also have an exciting week ahead at GGA! Our Homecoming Dance is this Saturday, October 24! We are looking forward to an evening of fun, celebration, and sisterhood. a


As we celebrate Homecoming, let's also remain focused on finishing the first marking period strong.

Join the GGA Board!

GGA is looking for parents and guardians interested in joining our Board and helping support the continued growth of our school community.
