GHS Parent Advisory Council (PAC)
The first PAC meeting of 2026 is Tuesday, January 20th at 6pm. All PAC meetings are held on the first floor of the GHS library on the third Tuesday of the month. There is no on-going commitment to participate, so if you can't make it in December, please feel free to join us at any other meeting during the school year.
We hope you can join us. We always welcome any suggestions to improve our support of the GHS students, faculty, and staff and our monthly meetings are a great resource to learn about the goings-on at the school. Please reach out with any questions, concerns, etc.
Please contact Jodi Murray if you are interested in helping out with this fun event!
