Lidl supports Atlanta-area schools
We love athletic programs and extracurricular activities just as much as we love high-quality groceries, which is why we're pairing up with the GCPS Foundation and Gwinnett County High Schools to raise money for their programs.
From September 13 to November 7, 2023, each dollar you spend at Lidl earns points for your school. The more points you earn, the higher the tier your school reaches and the more money they receive! Learn how it works...
All GCPS schools and offices will be closed on Monday, September 4, in observance of Labor Day.
Have a safe and enjoyable holiday weekend!

GCPS has transitioned from SchoolMessenger to ParentSquare for two-way communication between schools and families, and we encourage all families to download the app and create an account. With its user-friendly interface, ParentSquare offers seamless two-way communication through text, newsletters, posts, emergency alerts, and direct messaging. One of our favorite features is the integrated translation feature, enabling automatic translations for multilingual families.
