Welcome back to another school year! We hope you had a restful and enjoyable summer.

At Dr. John Hugh Gillis Regional High School, our goal is to provide every student with a safe, positive, and inclusive school experience where they can grow, learn, and thrive. We believe that when students feel welcomed, respected, and supported, they are able to achieve their fullest potential both inside and outside the classroom.

The staff of Dr. JHG is committed to working in partnership with families to ensure student success. Academic achievement, personal growth, and well-being are all strengthened when we work together as a school community. Your encouragement, involvement, and support are deeply valued as we continue to build an environment where all students belong.

This year, we remain focused on meeting the diverse strengths and needs of our learners. Students are encouraged to approach their studies with curiosity, to participate fully in extracurricular activities, and to demonstrate kindness, respect, and responsibility in their daily interactions. Our commitment is to offer meaningful learning opportunities while promoting a school culture rooted in safety, inclusion, and belonging.

Dr. John Hugh Gillis Regional High School continues its proud tradition of excellence in academics, arts, athletics, and leadership. One of our greatest strengths is the support of our families and community, whose partnership plays a vital role in the success of our students.

I look forward to working with students, staff, parents, and guardians as we make 2025–2026 a year of growth, success, and positive experiences for all.

Respectfully,
Cory Austen, Principal
