The Kiwanis Club and Lions Club of Griffin partnered with GSCS. They brought volunteers and the latest technology vision screening equipment to our elementary schools and screened over 4100 students. Thank you for your service!
Today marked our annual student toy giveaway, made possible by Beaverbrook's partner, Eagle's Landing Church. Members of Eagle's Landing donated enough toys for all students to have the opportunity to choose one to take home for the holidays. Students were beyond excited as they entered the media center to make their choice. Thank you Eagle's Landing for making this wonderful tradition possible!
All GSCS schools & offices will be closed Dec. 23, 2024 - Jan. 3, 2025, for the holiday break. GSCS staff return on Jan. 6, 2025, for professional learning & planning. Students return on Tuesday, Jan. 7, 2025.
