6th-grade students in Mr. Lockett's social studies classes were exploring documents to justify whether Alexander the Great was a hero or villain today. They are gathering evidence for their argumentative writing piece along with a memory or most wanted poster. #GCMSOpportunity
When brainstorming, remind your teen to write down all ideas rather than dismissing ones that seem silly. (Example: Doing a report as a restaurant menu.) Stopping to evaluate ideas can stifle creative thinking—and a great idea may be moments away. #GCMSOpportunity
Ms. Selena Walker's career choices class learned a lot this past week from our Virtual Transition Day. 8th-grade students interacted with a HyperDoc choice board to learn about the 16 career pathways they could register for as a freshman. #GCMSOpportunity
Test anxiety can have a negative impact on your teen’s scores. Feeling prepared can help. Suggest that your teen make a study schedule and stick to it. Then, when test day comes, your child can repeat positive messages like “I’ve got this!”

8th-grade students in Mrs. Ashley Johnson's career choices class explored a HyperDoc choice board for Virtual Transition Day 2021 at GCMS. While it's not the same as our annual in-person event, GCHS & our community still stepped up to the challenge for our kids! #GCMSOpportunity
GCS will welcome back all in-person students for a full, five-day week beginning March 22. Students who wish to remain on or transfer to the virtual option may do so. Full message from Supt. Robinson: http://bit.ly/UpdateGCS030421
Email scams can lead to identity theft. Teach your teen to look for signs of “phishing” emails, including spelling and grammar mistakes, an email address that doesn’t match the company name, and requests for personal information like a bank account number.
Railey Mattingly, an 8th-grade student at GCMS, has been selected as the county winner of the 2020 Conservation Writing Contest. A total of 15 essays were written and 10 posters were designed county wide. Congratulations Railey! #GCMSOpportunity
