Hello Argo Village,

Garden Grove High School is a place of learning where time and effort are invested to support students in achieving academic and personal skills along with life-long success. In order to maintain the proper student attitude and educational spirit, students must show proper attention to personal cleanliness, health, safety, neatness of appearance, and suitability of clothing for school activities. Students must dress in a presentable manner that is not distracting or disruptive to their classmates or to their instructors. Please review our current dress code as the Dress Code Policy will be enforced when school resumes for the 2024/2025 school year. Thank you.

Schoolwide Learner Outcomes (SLOs)

Did you know, in addition to teaching state standards, our school has developed our own Schoolwide Learner Outcomes (SLOs)? These expected learner outcomes go beyond the teaching of academic standards to teach students other skills that we would like them to acquire before they graduate from high school.

GGHS named California Distinguished School

In March 2019 Garden Grove High School was named as a California Distinguished School! GGHS is one of only 74 high schools in California and only 11 in Orange County to earn this distinction by closing the achievement gap as measured by California School Dashboard indicators. In particular GGHS showed significant growth in the dashboard’s Academic Indicator which is a reflection of the recent growth in performance on SBAC testing in English-Language Arts and math. This is truly an honor and testament to the hard work of students, faculty, and parents. We’re all so proud to be ARGOs!
