Student temporarily assigned to the GISD Alternative Education Center (GAEC) focus on continuing the scope and sequence of GISD curriculum to keep up with peers at their home campus.

Students attend eight classes a day including all required core classes and electives. Daily advisory classes are mandatory for all students and cover such topics as trust, good choices, classroom etiquette, social skills, gangs, drugs and violence.

The GAEC staff support students with their educational career as they put education into a different perspective. The small student -to-teacher ratio allows provides individualized support that leads to higher grades and a positive attitude as students acquire ownership over their education.
