Our paper trailer is a huge fundraiser for our association. However, without the help of everyone, the amount of work is not manageable for our small committee. Again, we are all members of SPA as we all have students at GACC. Please download the PDF below for the assigned work dates for each family.

Application Fee Waiver Aug. 1–Nov.1

The application for admission is open! First-year students from Nebraska can use the code "HUSKER" to apply for FREE through November 1. Students who apply for admission by November 1 will be notified of their scholarship awards on February 12. Encourage your rising seniors to consider applying to the University of Nebraska–Lincoln for Fall 2025! They have the option to apply to all three of the Universities through the one application. If they want to go to UNK, the code is "Lopers." UNO hasn't given out a code yet.

Nebraska Universities are test-optional for admission and test-preferred for full scholarship consideration. I encourage students to take the ACT/SAT and submit their test score to maximize their scholarship consideration. Without an ACT, odds are against receiving a Presidents or Regents Scholarship.

Please turn in immediately - All students who compete in ANY scholastic activity must turn in to the office a completed NSAA Athletic and Activities Student and Parent Consent Form. The form can be downloaded below, or is available in the high school office.

It's a Great Day to be a Bluejay!
