Our Family & Community Engagement team will be sending home Walk-A-Thon pledge forms with students tomorrow!
October is National Bullying Awareness Month. GCS students who experience or witness bullying can make an anonymous report to school officials using the STOPit web app at https://appweb.stopitsolutions.com/login or by downloading the STOPit app on any mobile device. Links to STOPit and incident reports are available on school and district websites and bookmarked on all student Chromebooks. Teachers and parents can assist students in submitting reports if they are too young to do so themselves. #StopBullying #BeKind
Ms. Callison's 1st Grade students at Lewisburg Elementary were so excited to receive tablets. Educational software is used to engage students while using programs that allow adaptive pathways to Individualize student learning.

GCS celebrates #NSLW and the 2022 theme, Peace, Love & School Lunch.
