Go Greyhounds!

Hello Greyhound Families!

We hope you are as excited as we are for the start of the school year as we welcome the Class of 2028, our incoming freshmen.  I hope everyone found time to rest and recharge over the summer months.  I’d like to start by welcoming our new certificated staff members at GCHS this year:

• Kaitlyn Di Scala, Math

• Brittany Kimbleton, Assistant Principal

• Danyelle Owen, Math

• Brady Stewart, Assistant Principal

Students are reminded that schedules are available in the Infinite Campus Portal and app; the schedule on the portal is the most up-to-date information.  Over the first few days, we encourage everyone to plan ahead, arrive at school early, and anticipate traffic and other delays as everyone learns the traffic flow into school.  Please remember that students should plan on arriving after 7:20am daily, when our students who ride a bus are dropped off.  School starts at 8am daily.

Freshmen: Mrs. Brittany Kimbleton will be the Assistant Principal working with our freshman students this year.

Sophomores & Seniors: Mr. Brady Stewart will be the Assistant Principal working with our sophomore and senior students this year.

Juniors: Mr. Scott Todd will be the Assistant Principal working with our junior students this year.  In addition, Mr. Todd serves as the Athletic Director for GCHS.

If you have questions about your student’s classes throughout the year, please contact their teacher first, via email or by calling the school office at 614-801-3300.  Open, continuous communication helps create strong partnerships for student success.  In addition, all students are encouraged to find a club, activity, or sport to join; students who are involved are more likely to be successful in school.  We have a list of clubs and activities at GCHS available on our website, gchs.swcsd.us. Students can explore our website and students will have opportunities throughout the fall to learn more about our many clubs and activities, such as through our involvement fair in September.

Throughout high school, we look for students to consider their “E”: enroll, enlist, employ.  By having a focused plan of what they wish to do beyond high school, students can make informed decisions about their high school experience and set goals to be successful.  All staff members can help with these goals or explore what opportunities are available; throughout the year, students are welcome to work with any of their teachers, their counselor, the administrators, or other staff here in the building to ensure their success.  

High school is a team effort and we thank you for your continued partnership and support.  If there is anything we can assist with to start the year, please reach out to our office.

Thank you,

Bryan O’Shea, Principal
