We are Very proud of our two GUHSD Sportsmanship Award winners Landon Vanderhyde (Soccer) and Mackenzie Ryan (Gymnastics)! They exemplify our West Hills Way and “play tough but fair” with “academics first”! Westmont College and SDSU are lucky to have you next year! Go Wolf Pack!!
The Full Paw Society is awarded to students who completed four years or more of high school science. This award is called the full paw because the wolf paw used for many of our mascot images has four toes. One toe to represent each science course taken. Students receive a wolf paw medallion on a lanyard.
Congratulations AVID Seniors Evening:
Honoring all AVID Seniors and their families for a job well done in their high school careers, on Thursday, Ashley Worth (AVID, English) and Carrin Edwards (AVID, English) celebrated their program beautifully in our Pit outdoors. Though some of our seniors were unable to join, we are proud of and happy to celebrate our entire senior family. Seniors who remained in our program for 2+ years also received their personalized sashes, which they are invited to wear at our Graduation. Congratulations all!

Thank you to all Faculty and Staff who attended Prom Saturday night and helped make this night very special for the Class of 2021! Students entered through a magical archway of lights, walked the red carpet to the field and danced the night away with lighting and DJ from SOS Entertainment. The evening ending with a great fireworks display celebrating our Seniors! Thank you to Marilyn Cabral (Science) for her role as Class Advisor and to John Hoadley (A.P.) who took over as weekly liaison with the Class Officers with Marilyn out on maternity leave. With clear skies, it truly was a night "under the stars". The Class elected not to have the traditional Prom Court or King / Queen and instead focused on "Together" as the theme for this very unusual Senior year!
Renovations are well underway in our Science Building. Take a look at the progress made so far....
Where is the GREENHOUSE???!!! Never able to be used because it was built with the wrong glass and literally burned everything within it, we finally said "goodbye" to this iconic eyesore. |
Science Classrooms are all torn up, with fixed peninsulas being replaced. S-6 above is representative of all classrooms in the building.

The GUHSD Special Education Career Center (SECC) would like to share our new newsletter with you "Career Connections". Our goal with this newsletter is to help share information regarding transition services and help provide resources for counselors, teachers, staff and students. Transition planning is a formal process for students with disabilities to help them begin thinking and planning for a successful future. This process begins at age 16 for all students, but can start as early as 9th grade when applicable. Please take a look to see what's new in transition services and be on the lookout for future communication
