Fill out the EES Family Survey this month!
The Educational Effectiveness Survey (EES) isn’t just for students. Families, we need your input to improve your student’s experience and your school’s performance. Parents can fill out the 2023-24 Educational Effectiveness Family Survey here. It will take about 10 minutes, and provide valuable information that informs the leaders at your child’s school and at the district level.
Each month of the 2023-24 school year, we will spotlight one of our strategic priorities or Portrait of a Graduate competencies by sharing the stories of two clusters—highlighting their classrooms, notable events, community insights, achievements, community service projects, student organizations, volunteer efforts, and more.
Critical Thinking
GCPS students and staff make a point to reflect deeply about their own thinking, integrating diverse perspectives to understand the "bigger picture." They consider the benefits and barriers of evolving technologies as they learn to use those technologies to achieve their goals, and are critical consumers of information.
In February, we shine a spotlight on Critical Thinking in the Brookwood and Dacula clusters.
