Courses of Study

CLUBS and EVENTS

The Great Mills High School community believes:

Learning is the priority of the school.

Each student has innate self-worth, value, and talent

Respect for others is essential.

The entire school community has the right to a safe, supportive, and respectful environment in a well-maintained facility.

Parents and guardians of students should actively participate in their children’s education.

The community plays a significant role in supporting and reinforcing the educational process.

Partnerships with the community extend student learning.

Learning extends beyond the classroom through a variety of extra-curricular and co-curricular activities.

All students have the ability to question, to analyze, and to solve problems.

Learning is enhanced by integrating curricula.

A variety of assessments allows students the opportunity to demonstrate their learning.

Learning is a life-long process.
