Preparing For Your Future
High School Equivalency Degree
Information
The State of Maine has selected a new high school
equivalency exam, the HiSET! This exam from Education
Testing Service will replace the GED as the high school
equivalency, starting in 2014. If you want to pursue a
rewarding career or continue your education, then getting
your high school credential is a very important step.
What is on the exam?
Your skills and knowledge are measured in five core areas
that make up the five HiSET subtests:
• Language Arts- Reading
Instructors: Doug and Becky Pride
These preparatory courses for the SAT have proven helpful
to high school students who wish to improve their scores
on the verbal and math sections of the Scholastic Aptitude
Test (SAT). The courses include test-taking tactics, drill
work, vocabulary lists, algebraic and geometric concepts
and a familiarity with the test that will allow students to feel
more prepared. Students in the English class will also write
two writing prompts which the instructor will correct and
comment on. The College Board Official SAT Study Guide
is the text used for both courses (included in price of class.) This course will prepare the student for the May 3rd SAT
EXAMINATION that all juniors in the state will take. Registration deadline is Thursday, March 13, if space is
still available! Don’t delay; these classes fill quickly!
• Language Arts- Writing
• Mathematics
• Science
All classes meet at GHS 6:30-8:30pm.
• Social Studies
What if I started my GED testing? Will I have to start
over?
No! The good news is you can carryover your GED test
completion scores to end of 2014 and combine with the
HiSET tests to complete your high school equivalency
degree.
How much does it cost?
The test and preparation is free to Maine residents.
How can I prepare for this test?
You can prepare by coming to our HiSET class located in
the GHS computer lab on Tuesdays and Thursdays from
5:15-7:15pm. Please contact Sarah Davis to register for this
class at [email protected].

360 Circuit
Instructor: Jenn Wilson
If you’re looking for something new, different and cutting
edge, this popular program is for you. High Intensity Circuit
Training (HICT) is the secret to losing body fat, weight and
increasing energy. The combination of aerobic and resistance
training in a high-intensity, limited rest design can deliver
numerous health benefits in much less time than traditional
programs.
The circuit consists of exercise stations that alternate lower
body and upper body strength movements and alternates
more aerobic actions with less aerobic ones, with carefully
timed periods of short rest in between, allowing for active
recovery between stations. The exercises station will be done
for 45 seconds, followed by no more than 15 seconds of rest
in between. The full circuit is repeated 2-3 times. You get a
total body work out in 45 minutes, gaining maximal results
in minimal time. The class will end with a core work out and
light stretch.
Exercises can be modified for safety and gradual conditioning
to this type of exercise. Each participant works at their own
pace and individual fitness level while experiencing the
motivation and support of the group and instructor.

body strengthening including glutes, abductor and adductor
work and core work that will strengthen abs, obliques and
the lower back. A variety of body weight exercises will be
performed to build strength and definition in the lower body
while isolating specific muscle groups rather than performing
full body exercises. Core work will be focused on functional
training to enhance daily activities and will encompass
everything from crunches to a variety of planks.
The second half of class will be dedicated to Active Isolated
Stretching to improve flexibility, range of motion, prevent
injury, and improve body mechanics. Active Isolated
Stretching (AIS) is a method of flexibility training where
stretches are held for no longer than 2 seconds and are
performed in reps and sets. Studies have shown that when
stretches held longer than 2 seconds those muscles contract,
which is the opposite reaction desired while stretching.
Another benefit of AIS is that the person stretching uses their
own muscles to move into position. When one muscle moves,
it causes the opposite muscle to shut off and relax resulting in
the perfect environment to stretch it.
This program will is a beneficial for athletes, people who
exercise daily, beginners or people who are looking for
strengthening and increased flexibility and range of motion
with no impact, machines or weights. This class will be
performed almost entirely on the floor so please bring a mat
for your comfort and protection.
