Purpose of the PTSA:

​to promote the welfare of children and youth in home, school, community, and, to raise the standards of home life.  We work with state and national PTA to secure adequate laws for the care and protection of children and youth.  We strive for a closer relation with the home and the school, so that parents and teachers may cooperate intelligently in the education of children and youth and we hope to develop between educators and the general public such united efforts as will secure for all children and youths the highest advantages in physical, mental, and social education.

Upcoming General member PTSA Meetings:

Some things we do:

Throughout the year, we have the opportunity to interact with the entire student body and all of the staff and faculty at GHS.  That is nearly 1900 students and adults.  We try provide all students and staff with the same opportunities, rather than single out a particular group.  Although we may focus one on one class at any given time, eventually, we reach all of the student body.

SHATTERED DREAMS - April 2016

This program was initiated by PTSA and run by one of our own members who coordinated all of the events with Police, Fire and Rescue along with GHS staff and many other volunteers.  This program is an educational experience that shows us of the dangers associated with drinking and driving.  This program involved the dramatization of an alcohol-related crash at GHS, complete with fire, police and EMS response, emergency room treatment, family notifications, and the arrest and booking of the driver. The crash scene drama was played out before the Junior and Senior class student body during the school day along with other drama unfolding all throughout the day to give the entire student body a better understanding of the number of DWI-related deaths

Eagle Camp

Each year in May, the incoming Freshman come to GHS for a tour of the campus.  Every year, their experience has gotten bigger and better.  Last year, each group on campus set up a booth to share what they can expect to experience when they attend GHS.  They ended their tour with a pep rally, including band, cheerleaders, skits and all!  PTSA provided has been able to provide a free T-shirt to all incoming Freshman with their graduating class (thanks to some sponsors who help us out).  Check out some of the shirts we have given out throughout the years.
Teachers need Kleenex too.  We held a parent supported gathering of tissues to stock the classrooms for the year.

This is just a sample of the things we do for the GHS staff and students as well as support for the parents.  Be a part of what we do.  If you can't volunteer your time, consider giving $7 to help us support GHS.
