AP / Honors Information

In an effort to offer our students the opportunities of a rigorous education, GHS has developed an Honors and Advanced Placement program.

All students enrolled in Advanced Placement courses are expected to take the AP exam.  To earn the extra grade point, students must take the AP exam and earn a C- (70%) or higher each semester. All honors and AP courses require signed agreements by parents, students and academic coordinator.
