GCPS CONNECTED

In the latest episode of Connected, we celebrate the GCPS Media Clerk of the Year, explore National Mentoring Month, look forward to the Gwinnett Regional Science + Engineering Fair, and more!

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.

Collaborative Leadership

GCPS students build relationships with trust and compassion by making principled choices. They have a win-win mindset, and strive to listen and encourage diverse perspectives to collaborate towards a common goal. Working together, they can take risks and manage new technologies or opportunities to positively impact their communities.

In January, we'll focus on Collaborative Leadership in the Parkview and Peachtree Ridge clusters.

Reminder… GCPS schools and offices will be closed on MLK Day— Monday, January 15— with students and staff returning to class on Tuesday.

The birthday of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., is observed as a national holiday each year on the third Monday in January. MLK Day is the only federal holiday designated as a national day of service to encourage all Americans to volunteer to improve their communities. Make it a day on, not a day off.

Gwinnett County Public Schools is excited to announce that after a year of planning, a redesigned version of the website, www.gcpsk12.org, will launch this month. Learn more about the new and improved website.
