GT College Info Night - February 4, 2025
6:30-8:30pm at Legacy High School
In February 2025, the Adams 12 high school GT Advocates will present information to GT students and their parents on selecting a college or university for further education after high school. This is a fantastic opportunity for parents of high school students to learn more about selecting and applying to a college or university, but with information geared specifically towards GT students.
