As with any group in its infancy, we have hit a few peaks and valleys with our GCHSAA efforts. We are in need of volunteers who would help out approximately four times a year to help get our group active. If you or someone you know have a few minutes in their schedule to help with one event, sit as a member of the e-board (meets no more than 4 times a year,) or is willing to donate to our scholarship fund efforts, and is a GCHS alumni….PLEASE contact us! Call Audrey at 734.812.7270 or email: GCHSAA@gmail.com We’d love to have you join us!

Welcome New Alumni!

Electronic Sign For GCHS

Wish List:


Although Christmas isn’t for many months, (and we can’t even pretend it’s Christmas in July yet…) we love to play Santa to our alma matter. A jolly ole’ Principle named Mr. Perttunen is searching the land for an electronic billboard for the front of the HS building. Does anyone have connections through their business with this type of equiptment, or would anyone be willing to sponsor a portion of the funds to install a sign in return for their company logo or name to be affliated or represented on it? Leave a comment if you have any ideas for us. We’d love to help make this happen and represent our GCHSAA muscle! Thanks~
