Being precise in math means more than just getting the right answer β€” it’s about using the correct labels, careful calculations, clear explanations, and thoughtful communication. These skills are important not only in the classroom, but in real life too β€” like during Bridge Day, where safety and accuracy truly matter! Check out this short video focused on attending to precision.

Happy Halloween!

These spooooky designs were created by Digital Imaging Multimedia Year 2 students. Students used Adobe Illustrator, a software application for creating vector graphics.

We hope you enjoy these Halloween treats from Calib, Shelby, Emma, Kamden, Braydon, Grayson, and Wyatt. Enjoy a fun and safe weekend.

πŸŽƒ Today, groups of GHS students took part in the WVU Pumpkin Drop in Morgantown! Working in teams, they designed and engineered protective pumpkin contraptions, then watched them take the ultimate plunge off an 11-story building. Schools from across the region competed to land closest to the target and keep their pumpkin intact. Thank you to WVU for having us today and hosting this event! πŸŽƒπŸ€©

If you interact with teenagers at all, I'm certain you have heard 6-7 this year. Today the GHS staff haunted our halls with "6-7" in many forms.

Thank you to Ms. Dalton for organizing another successful Bearcat Sugar Rush! This evening, we had 312 children visit Grafton High School and see all the offerings they can enjoy as they enter their high school years. Thank you for those who helped make this night a success: janitors, student volunteers after school who set up, groups that participated and the secret judge. Congratulations to Mrs. Sayres and ProStart for having the winning table.
