JGHS Students and Parents:
Summer school registration is now open. Any John Glenn student that failed a 1st semester class or ends up failing a 2nd semester class that is required for graduation will need to take a credit recovery class during summer school. If the credits are not earned during summer school, students will have to repeat the course during the next school year. Please see the attached flyer for more information.
