Principal's Message

GOC students worked very hard "earning their wings" this past semester.  Students who  received all A's or all A's/B's should stop by the Productivity Center during their on-campus labs next week to pick up  their pins. Thank you to all of our Honor Roll students for working so hard to  "Power your Potential to Shine!"
 
Have you seen GOC's new marquee?  We are thrilled it is finally up and running. This is another excellent communication tool to help our families stay on top of all campus happenings.

Attention Current GOC Families!                            

Registration for new families will be open for the month of February on a first-come, first-served basis. For planning purposes, all existing full-time GOC students will be automatically re-enrolled for the 2020-21 school year. 

Current families are encouraged to register any  new students early in February to ensure space.  Current families with students 
who will be new  to GOC will need to register their child during the open enrollment period beginning Monday, February 3. 

If you know your student  will not return to GOC next year, please let us know as soon as possible so that we may open the spot to a new family during full-time registration. If your student will not return to GOC next year you will be required to come on campus to withdraw your student in May 2020 after final grades have rolled. 

Please contact the front office if you have any questions or concerns.
