The Board of Education meeting scheduled for November 9 has been canceled. The next board meeting will be held on December 5, 2023.
Yesterday, GSCS Superintendent Dr. Keith Simmons treated the district's Teachers of the Year to afternoon tea. Everyone enjoyed chatting and "spilling the tea" with their colleagues. These educators were also thanked for being the "best of the best" and representing their school on the superintendent's advisory council with a gift. Thank you to our Partner In Education, The Emerald Chandelier, for hosting this fun event.
This week, November 6-10, let's show appreciation for our wonderful school psychologists. GSCS School Psychologists are dependable, responsive, resourceful and most importantly COMMITTED to the success and education of our students! During #SchoolPsychWeek show some extra love, gratitude and appreciation for your school's psychologist! #NSPW23
The 2023 National School Psychology Week theme, "Let's Grow Together," is inspired by the importance of both personal and shared strengths in our growth as individuals and school communities in every season of life. The theme recognizes four aspects of growth that are fundamental to effective learning environments and to school psychologists' role in supporting student well-being and learning.
HOW TO REDUCE YOUTH VIOLENCE IN OUR COMMUNITY? YOUR THOUGHTS ARE NEEDED! Our schools, neighborhoods and community play an integral role in shaping the future of our students, and together we have the power to foster positive change.
