Congratulations to our GCHS seniors selected for the 2025–2026 Gordon County–Calhoun Youth Leadership Program!

Keira Bryson, Cameron Cochran, Eva Hawkins, Seth Kolterman, Estrella Martinez-Gonzalez, Riley McEntire, William Parish, Anna Caroline Parker, Lily Perez, Randy Vicente, and Belle Watkins (not pictured).
