GSCS needs your input on "What factors need to be considered when deciding the school calendars for the next two school years?". To gather your feedback, we're using a tool called ThoughtExchange. All of our voices matter, so your participation is crucial and valued. Click here to participate: https://tejoin.com/scroll/401872874 You'll be asked to respond to one open-ended question, consider and assign stars to some of the ideas shared by others (20 to 30 is ideal), and learn what's important to the group. Your thoughts and stars are confidential. You can come back as often as you'd like to participate and, in fact, we ask that you do come back to star some of the new ideas shared since you first participated. The ratings will help us understand the most important areas to focus on. Thank you in advance for your help and input.

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.
