2. Extra-curricular activities will be included. You do NOT need to be on a team. Think of this area of our yearbook as an area to show what you love to do. Maybe you like to read, cook, work on cars, dance, or garden. These are all fantastic activities we wan to include.

GA Pirates,

All students receive a GCPS 💻 Chromebook 💻 to use at school and at home. This school year, there is not a required usage fee. Due to this updated change, all students/families are required to complete the new paperwork.

The following must be completed for the 2023-2024 school year:

All Students > New & Returning:

• Complete the Technology Paperwork/Papeles de Tecnologia Form

You can do this on your own Internet-connected device or smartphone, or if you need assistance, you can come to the school to complete the form. We will have staff on hand to assist you if you wish to complete your Chromebook paperwork at a physical building, however, we encourage all families to complete it prior to the first day of school.

Thank you in advance.

ClassLink (ClassLink replaced Clever)

ClassLink is an app integration and repository tool. The students will automatically access it when they log in to a Chromebook. Each school’s web page will have a link to Classlink that can be bookmarked in the browser.

Get some ACT practice with an ACT Question of the Day! There is a new question every day that you can answer. This will tell you the correct answer and also explain why the correct answer is the correct answer.

On Friday, our Seniors who have not yet completed the required CPR certifications will be at our Mary Potter location for their session. This CPR session will be followed by a required senior meeting for all seniors at 11:00 a.m. so we can give them information about graduation practice, graduation dress, and graduation day information. ALL seniors are required to attend this session.

GA Pirates,

I have attached a link to the new registration form and class calendar for 2024. Registration for each class will end at 3:30 on the Friday before class starts.

The first class will start on January 15th, for Early College.
