Welcome!

GCHS Mixtape is an afterschool group for students who are passionate about discovering, listening to, and sharing music. We meet on the 2nd and 4th Wednesdays of each month in room 2460. While there, we compile mix CDs for the hallway music that plays during passing periods, and we create content for this site. Enjoy!
