Resourcefulness
GCPS students and staff innovate by translating original thinking into viable solutions. They use their imagination to transcend traditional rules and patterns to create new ideas and approaches to problem-solving, and embrace learning from diverse sources and experiences to use resources creatively and efficiently.
In March, we'll focus on Resourcefulness in the Mountain View and Seckinger clusters.
