The Forum

Extracurricular Fair 

Research shows that students who are involved in some form of extracurricular activity (through school or outside of school) feel a greater sense of connection to their school and experience greater levels of academic success at school. Please see what extracurricular options are available to you at GHS.   

Preparing for College 

What are you doing after high school? For many, "college" is the answer. If you have plans to go to college, this session is for you. You will get info and advice about the admissions process (applications, financial aid, scholarships, the admissions essay). You will also get a chance to ask questions from our presenters. We will also offer a Senior only session that will give you time to complete your college applications (so bring your Chromebook).  

Giving Back (Service Project) 

It is important to remember that many experience increased loneliness during the holidays. We will partner with Mail a Smile, a non-profit that organizes writing letters of encouragement and holiday greetings for Senior Citizens living in nursing homes. Students who sign up and participate will receive service hours. 

Self-Care | Wellness 

January is usually a season for people to make resolutions, try something new or break a bad habit. It is also a time when we can get in a post-holiday rut. Mrs. Bloem and Ms. Koza will talk about ways to turn the winter blues into the winter ya-hooz by discussing mental health, stress management, exercise, and nutrition.

Career Readiness 

"What are you going to do after high school?" is one of the most common questions students get asked; it's also one of the most important. Planning your future starts now. We will discuss career readiness and exploration; how to discover career interests and passions to help you on the path to your career.
