Important Reminders - UPDATE
Starting tomorrow and for the remainder of the first semester, with the exception of Friday, November 6th, each Friday will be an off-site learning day for all students.
- Please see the AB In-Person Learning Calendar on the GHS website. We will follow our ½ day schedule (details below).
- Teachers will communicate with students as to whether they will have a synchronous meeting that morning during their class period or asynchronous work to do on their own. If a synchronous meeting is not scheduled for a particular class, students can use that time to communicate with their teacher via Microsoft Teams.
- Teachers will also have office hours each Friday at the end of the half-day schedule. Please note the time of office hours has changed since the last communication. See the updated schedule below.
