Overview

Welcome to the GFPS Secondary Schools

College, Career and Citizenship Ready

The mission of the Great Falls Public Secondary Schools is to ensure that every student is prepared for his or her future, whether that leads to a career or college after graduation.

The pathways to graduation vary for each and every student, so we have a variety of programs to meet students' needs. The high quality, comprehensive opportunities for students include career-technical and business courses (see CTE), music and fine arts, online learning offerings, job shadows, internships, independent study and advanced placement, honors and dual credit (college) course offerings, as well as a whole host of extra and co-curricular offerings.  For more information, you may also view our VISIONS Newsletter, updated in the Fall & Spring every year.

Please visit the links above for more information about our secondary schools and our special programs.

If you have questions, comments, concerns, or conversation about our secondary schools, I invite you to contact one of our Executive Directors by using the contact information to the right below.

Sincerely,

Lance Boyd
Eastside Executive Director for Student Achievement
