Garden City High School will hold a number of checkout sessions to issue iPads to students returning for the coming school year. The checkout will be held outside of the GCHS iPad Support Room, 2720 Buffalo Way Blvd. Freshmen and new students will be able to get their iPads during the first week of school.
Students are encouraged to have all fees paid at the time of iPad checkout. Fee payments can be made online at: https://payments.efundsforschools.com/v3/districts/55837.
The checkout process may take up to ten minutes. This year’s sophomores, juniors, and seniors may come during the following times: August 3rd – 6th from 8:30 a.m. - 4:00 p.m. each day.
All Garden City High School students have the opportunity during these days to get their student ID picture taken for the 2026-27 school year. Students will also have an opportunity to check out a locker for the school year.
Students who do not pick up their iPad during one of the scheduled times during the week will have it issued to them before or after school in the iPad Support Room at the school.
The first day of school for the 2026-27 school year will be Wednesday, August 12th, with a half-day orientation for students in grades kindergarten through fifth grade, seventh grade, ninth and tenth grades, and all students new to Garden City Public Schools. The first full day of school for Garden City Public Schools is Thursday, August 13, 2026, when all classes will be in session for the start of the 2026-27 school year.
The district is asking parents to update their contact information with the schools. The district needs this contact information so buildings can contact families with any updates as we progress through the school year.
