GCPS CONNECTED

In this episode of Connected, we introduce you to our newest Student Correspondent, Th'Yana, who has some helpful reminders for the Digital Learning Day on September 20, and college planning. Café Gwinnett introduces Smoothie Bikes, and we celebrate achievements in programs at Berkmar HS, Meadowcreek HS, and Collins Hill HS.

The Blueprint in Action focus for the months of August, September, and October is College and Career Readiness. During these months we will be spotlighting how we are preparing students for the college and career of their choice, specifically highlighting the efforts in GCPS to meet these objectives in our strategic plan.

GCPS is inviting parents and community members to apply for the district’s Sex Education Instructional Resources Review Committee (IRRC), a group charged with evaluating print and digital instructional resources related to sexual and reproductive health. Feedback from the IRRC and teacher reviews will be considered in the selection of resources to pilot in the district. The deadline to submit completed applications is Sunday, October 6.
