I've put off updating our site even though through it all, my GHS Clippers have surely been innovating! Since I've last updated the site our school complex of over 2,100 students experienced a school fire that left us out of our building, with none of our own supplies, and sharing a neighboring high school only going to school on Tuesdays, Thursdays, & Saturdays. If that didn't cause us to "innovate" enough, on March 13th it was decided we would be out of school for 10 days because of the Coronavirus. During those 10 days GHS teachers tried Live Meetings in Teams, Gimkit games, virtual Kahoot, and even a Virtual Spirit Week. On Monday March 23th, it was announced by the Virginia Governor we will not be returning to school this academic year. We do not yet know what that means for courses, content, teachers, or students. All I know is my staff is dedicated, loving, brave, and yes innovative! FDR said, "Smooth seas never made a skilled sailor." Please let me know what I can do to support you, teachers, students, and learning. I am hear for you!
