      GKHS Construction 

      Thank you, voters! Construction crews are making amazing progress on the new Graham-Kapowsin High School expansion project. The 33,000-square-foot expansion will add a new classroom wing, an auxiliary gym and weight room, along with a larger commons area and administrative spaces. The new wing will allow students and faculty members to move from portables back into the main building. The project is part of our successful 2019 school construction bond and will be ready for students in the fall of 2023. https://youtu.be/Dd5XAmWbxtA

       

      CHS Construction

      Thank you, voters! Students and staff at Challenger High School are so thrilled to finally be in their new, state-of-the art facilities! Phase II of the 31,000-square foot project recently wrapped up, adding more classroom space, as well as more parking and, soon, a practice field to the school. In order to make room for all these great spaces, our construction team had to tear down the old portables that Challenger had been using for decades.

    Principal's Message

    • Welcome to the 2022/23 School Year GKHS families! I am excited to welcome students back to what will be a great school year. At GKHS we believe that Orange and Blue Starts with YOU. YOU stands for “Your personal best everyday,” “Own your future,” and “Understand we are one.” This is the language that teachers use with students as they work toward graduation and life after graduation. We want every student to feel a sense of belonging at GKHS.

      This summer the construction team has been busy at work on our expansion project. Students will notice some changes when they return in the fall. The full project- including the 3rd wing – will be complete in the summer of 2023 so this year we will still have areas of the school under construction.

      We have several supports we will offer students this year. We will continue to have the Writing Center available during lunch and study support to work with students for any writing-based assignments such as English or Social Studies papers, Science labs, or other assignments. This will be in room 232. We will have a math tutoring center in room 256 that will be available during all lunches, study support, and select days after school. Students should be aware of these resources and the availability of staff to support them in their learning.

      Sincerly,

      Mr. Yarkosky
