UPDATE REGARDING GHS GRADUATION
Dear Gresham High School Community,
We sincerely appreciate the input that many in the community have shared about our graduation event. Throughout this spring over the many meetings we have had regarding our circumstances, we have kept seniors at the forefront of our discussions.
Today we have met twice regarding the graduation event with our building leadership team, building staff, and district office leadership to continue the planning and brainstorming process. In the messages we have received from the community today we recognize that more details about the event are needed.
We are grateful for the input of our community and will be adding a photo opportunity at the graduation event. Further details about this opportunity will be shared next week.
Thanks
Gresham High School Administrative Team
Estimada Comunidad de Gresham High School,
Apreciamos sinceramente su opinión que muchos en la comunidad han compartido acerca del evento de graduación. Durante las varias juntas que hemos tenido esta primavera acerca de nuestras circunstancias, hemos mantenido a los estudiantes seniors como el enfoque principal de nuestras pláticas.
Hoy nos hemos reunido dos veces acerca del evento de graduación con nuestro equipo de liderazgo, personal de la escuela, y equipo de liderazgo del distrito para continuar el proceso de la planeación y la lluvia de ideas. Después de recibir mensajes de la comunidad, reconocemos que se necesitan más detalles acerca del evento.
Estamos agradecidos por la opinión de nuestra comunidad y estaremos agregando una oportunidad para tomar foto en el evento de graduación. Más detalles acerca de esta oportunidad serán compartidas la siguiente semana.
Gracias
Equipo Administrativo de Gresham High School

GHS-DISTANCE LEARNING FOR ALL
Dear Gresham Community,
Starting Monday April 13th Gresham High School will begin “Distance Learning for all”. Below you will find the schedule for your student(s) classes. We understand there are still technology needs. Students should begin class work as technology becomes available. If you have not checked-out a device in the last 3 days from one of the Gresham-Barlow pick up sites, please contact the school (503-674-5500) to make arrangements for you to check-out a device. If you need internet access please contact local providers, many are offering 60 day free access. Here is a list of providers from GBSD:
- Comcast basic internet is free for low-income customers for 60 days and $9.99/month after that: www.internetessentials.com/Apply
- Comcast: corporate.comcast.com/covid-19
- CenturyLink: news.centurylink.com/covid-19
At this time teachers will monitor student engagement in their Google classrooms. The district is currently working on attendance protocols for the remainder of the school year. Distance Learning is a requirement for all students. The expectations of attendance are the same virtually as they were face-to-face. Please continue to follow GHS expectations as we move forward with distance learning.
The Oregon Department of Education has recently provided new, updated graduation requirements for all seniors. We are currently reviewing seniors’ transcripts to verify if they have met their graduation requirements. Senior students should continue in classes until notified by school officials. District level leadership are developing a plan on how to finalize senior classes. We will have this information soon, so please watch for additional communication.
For grades 9th through 11th-District leadership will communicate the grading expectations for distance learning with guidelines from the Oregon Department of Education. Beginning April 13th teachers will be allowed to require assignments be turned in for grading purposes. If your student is experiencing issues with Google classroom please have them reach out to their teachers.

Los estudiantes deben comenzar el trabajo de clase a medida que la tecnología esté disponible.

Las expectativas de asistencia son las mismas virtualmente que en persona. Continúe siguiendo las expectativas de GHS a medida que avanzamos con el aprendizaje a distancia.

Los estudiantes Seniors deben continuar en las clases hasta que los oficiales escolares se comuniquen con ellos.

HOW TO ORDER GRESHAM HIGH SCHOOL TRANSCRIPTS
For alumni and past GHS students ordering transcipts is done online. The cost is $2.00 per transcipt and it can take from 2 to 4 business days for processing. To order online please go the student tab across the top of the webpage and then go down to the transcipt button. Currently we are in a large construction project and can't not access our physical records everyday. This may cause us delays in processing transcript orders. We will do our best but recognize that it might take longer then the 4 days to get to the transcripts.
You can also use the link provided below to reach the transcript order area.

Mr. Drake Shelton
I’m excited to come to a district with so much promise and tradition. I want to continue with traditions, while adding some new memories. I have been an educator for the past 15 years. Through my years of education I have spent time in alternative education, faith-based learning and a traditional comprehensive high school. Over the years I have learned the value of relationships, instructional leadership and collaboration.
Working in education has taught me the value of relationships. Relationships are essential to the growth and development of our community. Gresham High School staff wants to ensure we build strong relationships with each family, and that includes you. We are never too busy for you and value your perspective and input. Our hope is to strengthen our school community and celebrate our success together.
This is an exciting time for Gresham High School. We have a new high school building filled with dedicated teachers who want to raise the success rates through high impact instructional strategies, develop culturally responsive practices and be innovative in our structures for kids.
