The GSCS Back to School Celebration brought all 1400+ staff together for a high-energy, inspirational, motivational kick-off to the 2023-24 school year! Student leaders welcomed the staff and were emcees for the event. Staff learned and laughed with Innovative Teaching, Learning and Leadership Consultant and Author George Couros, who was the keynote speaker. Staff were also entertained by the Atlanta Braves Heavy Hitters Drum Line and Educator and Comedian J. Cornelius George. A lot of staff recognition occurred with the naming of the 2023 Classified Employees of the Year, Counselor of the Year and Media Specialist of the Year. The 2023-24 Teachers of the Year were celebrated and the District Teacher of the Year was revealed and surprised with a new car for a year, thanks to the district's partnership with Cronic Nissan! Partners In Education Food Depot, the City of Griffin and Spalding County donated gift cards and gift baskets to 20 lucky staff members. Thank you to all community partners who helped make this event great, especially Oak Hill Church for their generosity, hospitality and support!
Kona Ice will be available to purchase at Open House...we can't wait to see you!!
