In this episode of Coffee with Calvin, Dr. Watts sits down with Dr. Al Taylor, Chief of Schools, to discuss the behind-the-scenes work that goes into supporting Each and Every Student.

The Blueprint in Action focus for the months of November and December is Each and Every Student. During these months we will be spotlighting how our schools are taking on the challenge to meet the needs of each and every student.

During this virtual session, GCPS families of students in grades 6-12 will receive information about Gwinnett Writes, and other post-secondary readiness assessment opportunities.

To ensure that everyone— students, staff, and community members— has ample time to participate, GCPS has extended the deadline to review and provide feedback on Health (Sex Education) course curriculum materials to November 15. Please visit this link to begin the review.

On October 29, Gwinnett students in grades 8, 10, and 11 took the PSAT free of charge. The PSAT is a part of the SAT family of assessments. Learn more about scoring information here.
