Galesburg-Augusta High School

Happy November.

We have a lot to be thankful for at G-AHS. We are fully staffed with hard working and student-focused staff. Our students are focused on their credits and doing a great job with following expectations and creating a safe and friendly culture. As we navigate through November, I challenge you to have a heart of gratitude. Who can you thank? What can you be thankful for?

I'm so thankful for my Ram Family! The students here are so caring, silly and all around great kids. Thank you for sharing them with us everyday!

My Best,

Principal Newton
