Academic Team
Brian Hoover and Carolyn MacDonald

The GHS academic team is comprised of students from each grade level. The
team competes in various competitions throughout the year. These meets
are comprised of questions from all subject areas.

Each semester the team participates in the Knowledge Master Open. This is
a computer based competition that ranks our team against other teams from
throughout the state and the country. In the Spring of 2007, we placed
7th out of all the teams in Tennessee in this event.

We also hold an event that spotlights our team in front of the student
body in a competition against members of the GHS faculty. This event
proves to be a great educational experience for the student body, as well
as our team members.

The GHS academic team has participated in meets held at Cookeville,
Monterey, Upperman, Tennessee State University, Jackson County, Tennessee
Tech University, as well as holding practice sessions with other local
teams.
