4 Reasons to Consider Community College Flexible class times and hands-on workforce training are a few benefits of attending community college.

Current 8th–11th grade students will be able to view their UNOFFICIAL schedules and the master schedule beginning Friday, May 8th at 3:30 PM through Skyward (student access). The view will remain open through Friday, May 15th.

Students who wish to request a change to their unofficial schedule:
1st Schedule Adjustment Window May 13-15: can request changes using the GHS Schedule Change Request form. Changes are based on space and availability (as well as meeting any prerequisites) and will likely impact the order of a student’s schedule. Counselors will reach out if they have any questions regarding a student’s schedule.

2nd Schedule Adjustment Window July 29-31 (for Schedule Errors only): can submit an online form if there is an error in their schedule (ex. already took and passed a course, hole in schedule, chosen for higher-level activity, etc.).

Please see the email sent out or Class of 20XX Canvas post for further details and information.
