We are #GalaxProud of Molly Plant, Easton Crosby, Ariana Sanchez Rojas, and Kyrie Sexton for representing Galax High School at the Southwest Virginia AI Student Leadership Symposium in Abingdon yesterday!

From exploring the possibilities of artificial intelligence to developing leadership skills and learning alongside other student leaders, it was a fantastic day of innovation, collaboration, and growth!

We are incredibly proud of these Maroon Tide leaders as they embrace new opportunities, expand their knowledge, and prepare to make an impact in an ever-changing world!

Happy World Occupational Therapy Day!

Today, Galax City Public Schools recognizes and celebrates our occupational therapist and the meaningful impact she has on our students each day.

From supporting independence and participation to helping students develop the skills they need to learn, grow, and succeed, our OTs are an important part of our school community. We are grateful for their dedication, expertise, and commitment to helping every student reach their full potential.

Thank you, Kayla, for all that you do!

A certificate with a white background features a red "M" and black text reading "Galax High School 2025-2026 Distinguished School."

VDOE has released it's annual accreditation results. We are proud to announce that for the second year, Galax High School has been named a Distinguished High School.

The School Performance & Support Framework looks at each school’s academic performance and growth, student readiness and attendance, and — for high schools — students’ preparation for postsecondary success. Each of those four indicators are measured by multiple components, such as student proficiency on state tests, student growth year to year, graduation rates, absenteeism and other factors. #GalaxProud #GalaxReady
