Why Choose AC/GC High School?

At AC/GC Schools, students are prepared not just to graduate, but to take their next step with confidence. Through hands-on learning, college opportunities, and strong community partnerships, we help students discover their strengths and build a path toward their future.

Real-World Experience

Every student has the opportunity to participate in a work-based learning experience while in high school. With 100% participation, our students gain valuable skills and experiences that connect classroom learning to the real world.

A Head Start on College

Students can get a jump-start on their college education while still in high school. 97.78% of students earn college credit before graduation, giving them valuable experience and a strong foundation for what comes next.

A Commitment to Graduation

Our students are supported every step of the way. With a graduation rate above the state average, AC/GC is focused on helping every student reach their goals.

Full Spectrum of Extracurricular Activities

Our students demonstrate strong participation in extracurricular activities, including athletics, fine arts, FFA, LEOs, National Honor Society, Student Council, and a wide variety of other student clubs and organizations. These opportunities allow students to explore their interests, develop leadership and teamwork skills, build meaningful relationships, and become actively involved in their school and community. The high level of student participation reflects a strong sense of school pride, engagement, and commitment beyond the classroom.

Stronger Together

Since the 2016-2017 school year, Guthrie Center and Adair-Casey students have come together through a whole-grade sharing agreement. Students in grades 9–12 attend high school together in Guthrie Center, creating a larger, connected school community while bringing together the strengths of our communities.

At AC/GC, students aren't just preparing for the future—they're already building it.
