Greenup County School District -

It might not surprise you to see a young man like this working on the construction site of GC’s new athletic facility. What will surprise you is the fact that he just graduated from GC in May. In fact, he is already making a good living and receiving very high praises from the boss. Matthew Boggs (pictured right) is only 18 years old – the day after graduating he began to earn what many adults work years toward making. It turns out that he’s already years ahead of the average graduate, and his jobsite boss will be the first to tell you. “Matthew is at least 3 years ahead of anybody who’d walk in off the street… he’s phenomenal,” said project superintendent Steve Warnock (pictured left). Warnock, a GC graduate himself, had great pride as he went on about Matthew. “This young man is the poster child for utilizing the opportunities given to them… and GC has provided him with great opportunities,” he said. In fact, Matthew has run with the opportunities that are available to students at GC. Matthew, who was known as a very hardworking student as well as baseball player, entered into our electricity classes his sophomore year. He applied that same work ethic to 3 years of electricity classes under instructor Clay Couch. By the end of his senior year, he was already getting jobsite experience and an offer of employment. “I feel lucky to have the opportunities I’ve had… you don’t see these opportunities just anywhere,” Matthew said. He then made it a point to give thanks to his electricity instructor, Clay Couch. “Mr. Couch was a great teacher and a great guy to be around,” he said. Matthew went on to advise any young Musketeer to take advantage of the opportunities GC provides. As we tell all of our students – take advantage of our college credit classes, career pathway courses, or both! Doing so puts our students at an advantage the day they graduate. As 2024 graduate Matthew Boggs is proving – it truly does pay off. Congratulations, Matthew! You are an outstanding example of why we… #BelieveInGC

Many elementary students recently completed their Wax Museum exhibits!! What a bright idea! The goal given by teachers... to understand how significant figures from all over the world have made a difference in our lives! We think students hit the ball out of the park!! They became an expert on a person, dressed up as them, and told an audience everything they needed to know. Even better, there were great turnouts from community members and parents! Great job, everyone!! Check your student's school page to find more pictures! #BelieveInGC

We are so proud of these 3 students! These sophomores have been accepted to the Morehead State Craft Academy, which they will begin next school year. The Craft Academy is for "Excellence in Science and Mathematics" and students who are accepted actually live on MSU's campus for the school year, receiving dual credit for college and high school. The students all said that the opportunity is incredible and exciting. We are blown away to have 3 students accepted in one year, and can't wait to see what their futures hold. Please help us congratulate Erhardt Bentz, Chasity Bartsch, and Cross Remy!! #BelieveInGC

We knew our Student Council (aka StuCo) was special... but now it's official!! Help us congratulate this fantastic group for being named "National Council of Excellence"!! Many people don't realize how involved these young men and women are in GC culture. They spend a lot of time spearheading efforts to spread school spirit and include others, such as deciding district-wide themes for school activities. Appropriately, when we showed up to take their picture they were all dressed up for the "bikers vs. surfers day" that they initiated. What a fun group! Congrats StuCo! #BelieveInGC
