GPS Family

Dear GPS Parents and Families,

We are headed toward the end of this school year and I would like to thank our parents and families for your continued support of your student(s). Our community plays an incredibly important role in supporting our children to work hard and show up for themselves and others on our campuses every day and it is an honor to see our students working hard managing their school work along with testing, extracurricular activities, clubs, and everything else.

Coming up this month and in May there will be lots of opportunities to also thank our incredible GPS educators, support staff, and administrators for all they do! This week is Assistant Principal’s week and I invite you to join me in celebrating the many APs we have working hard across our district, juggling numerous priorities while supporting our students to learn and thrive! Please visit our district website calendar for full details of all the special appreciation days coming up, including Teacher Appreciation Week in May!

Let’s work together and support each other to finish this year strong.

Sincerely,

Dr. Shane McCord's Signature

Shane McCord, Ed. D.
Superintendent
