Over the past six weeks, more than 50 members of the GHS Class of 2027 participated in a College Planning Group coordinated by Junior Class Counselor, Stephanie Woodard! 🎓

During weekly Study Hall, students explored important topics like the college search process, financial aid, transcript requests, and timelines for applications. Special thanks to our guest presenters from Monmouth College, Knox College, and Carl Sandburg College, who shared valuable insights about admissions, financial aid, athletics, and student support services — including the TRIO Student Support Services program that provides an additional layer of support for first-generation, income-eligible, and students with disabilities.

The group wrapped up on November 12 with a fantastic College Student Panel that gave students real-world advice about college life.

Mrs. Woodard will continue meeting with students this spring to help them prepare for their post-secondary plans. We’re so proud of our students for taking the initiative to plan their futures! 🖤💛 #StreaksNation #DoingGreatThings #GHSClassof2027 #CollegeReady

Today, Mr. Dwight White — a proud member of our Streaks Dads program — spent time with students and even caught a new staff member, to teach them the art of tying a necktie. He demonstrated several techniques, from traditional knots to classic bow ties, giving students a hands-on lesson in confidence and professionalism.

Thank you, Mr. White, for leading by example and helping our students learn valuable life skills that go far beyond the classroom!
