Griffin High Graduation Update -
There is currently a lightning delay at Memorial Stadium. All students and graduation guests should remain in their cars until the lightning delay has passed. We must wait 30 from any lightning strike within a 10 mile radius of the stadium before entering the stadium. We will send an update once the lightning delay is over. Every attempt will be made to have graduation tonight as soon as the weather permits.

GHS Graduation Information (Live Stream)

Dear Griffin High School Families and Staff,

The start time for tonight's graduation ceremony has been moved up to 6 p.m. in an effort to avoid inclement weather. Gates will still open at 5 p.m. All other details for graduation will remain unchanged. Visit (https://www.gscs.org/page/graduation-class-of-2026) the destination graduation page for the top 10 things you need to know for graduation, parking map and the live stream link. Raincoats and ponchos are encouraged but umbrellas are not permitted in the stadium. All students will be provided a poncho. We have been in constant contact with our meteorology team and they have advised that the chance of inclement weather increases later in the evening. If lightning is detected near our area, the stadium will be evacuated and the ceremony will be delayed until weather permits. Any additional updates will be provided on the GSCS and GHS website, social media, GSCS app, email, phone call and text.

Thank you.

Yesterday, 3 avid GSCS readers were recognized for their commendable commitment to reading for pleasure! Al Barlow (Crescent Elementary), Addyson Crook (Kennedy Road Middle) & Nathaniel Duffey (Griffin High) received Acer Chromebook tablets courtesy of the GSCS Instructional Technology Department. Students are encouraged to utilize Accelerated Reader and Beanstack to track their reading progress. Accelerated Reader awards points to students based on their performance on reading quizzes.

GHS Teacher Appreciation Week: Spring Training Edition – Day 1

Today, we kicked off GHS Teacher Appreciation Week with the theme “Start Strong, Finish Strong!” Our amazing teachers came dressed as the champions they are in athletic gear, team apparel, and comfy outfits ready to train.

During lunch, teachers were treated to a delicious “Power Up” Salad Bar as a special way to celebrate and thank them for the incredible work they do each day for our scholars.

A special thank you goes to Ms. Barnes and her culinary students for serving our teachers during lunch and helping make today’s celebration a success.

We appreciate our GHS teachers and look forward to celebrating them all week long!
