Happy Valentine's Day from our awesome custodians! #ColtsCan #Team
Show the LOVE!
Our teachers and staff are committed to serving Griffin-Spalding County students. Sometimes, we may forget to show our gratitude or appreciation. On Valentine’s Day, we're encouraging fellow employees, parents, students and community members to show love to each other using Let's Talk! Consider giving a dedicated teacher some praise, recognizing a passionate administrator or shouting out any staff member who has impacted you in any way!

Thank you, school counselors, for actively helping students examine their abilities, strengths, interests and talents. Thank you for partnering with parents and teachers to help students realize their potential and set healthy, realistic and optimistic aspirations for themselves. School counselors are an integral part of our schools and district. Thank you for all that you do!
