A GLC is a Grade Level Coordinator. Each grade level has two GLC's that assist each student. Grade Level Coordinators act as parents on campus. They handle conflicts that may occur with any of the students, they can assist you in what classes to take, what college admission policies are, and most importantly they can give guidance to any student looking for someone to talk to. Our Grade Level Coordinators are out on campus during Brunch and Lunch and invite students to contact us during this time for any assistance needed.
