Principal's Message 

GOC will observe a student/teacher holiday tomorrow, Friday, March 23. Due to our unique learning environment, we continued to operate on the inclement weather days earlier this year when GCPS cancelled school. Students will continue to have access to their courses. Please be mindful that teachers will not be available to students this day. This is a great opportunity for students to work ahead or get caught up on assignments. 

Please mark your calendars, GCPS will observe Spring Break beginning on Monday, April 2 through Friday, April 6.
