Last Thursday, our 6th and 8th grade students had an incredible opportunity to visit the Calhoun-Gilmer Career Center!
Students were guided through the center’s wide range of programs and explored the many career pathways available to them. From technical training to specialized skill development, they were able to see firsthand how these programs prepare students for real-world success.
Even better, our students didn’t just observe — they participated! They had the chance to try several hands-on activities, giving them a true feel for the skills and experiences each program offers.
Experiences like this help our students begin thinking about their futures and the many opportunities available right here in our community. #gogilmer #lovemywvschool #CTE

On Saturday, February 7, three GCHS students — Marelly Medrano, Catelynn Parsons, and Jobe Carter — participated in the Region II Solo & Ensemble Festival. They are the first students from our school to take part in this festival in quite some time, and they represented GCHS exceptionally well.
Jobe Carter, a freshman saxophonist, received a rating of 1, which is a Superior rating. He dedicated countless hours to preparation, and his hard work truly paid off. We are very proud of his accomplishment.
Marelly, Caty, and Jobe also joined together to perform a trio selection titled “Give My Regards to Broadway.” Their collaboration and preparation earned them a 1+, a Superior Plus rating.
The GCHS Music Department has enjoyed continued success this year, and these students have made two remarkable contributions to that achievement. Congratulations, and Go Titans!
