Happy National Maintenance Worker Appreciation Day! Today, we honor the hardworking men who keep our facilities running smoothly and safely. Whether it's keeping us comfortable by maintaining our HVAC units, ensuring our electrical systems run smooth, repainting our buildings, or responding to alarms in the middle of the night, they're always there when we need them. Let's take a moment to appreciate and recognize these unsung heroes who work tirelessly behind the scenes. 💪❤️ #MaintenanceWorkerAppreciation #ThankYou #UnsungHeroes #FacilityManagement #GCS #BetterTogether

Our school counselors #thrive when... #GCSchools #NSCW25

woman with words “I think I thrive as a school counselor when I am supported by administrators, when teachers and staff recognize the value (of) a safe space, and understand what an advocate can bring to the school.”

woman with words “What really helps me thrive is the support of my teachers, administration, and counseling coach. There is no better feeling than when a child references something I have either taught them in class, or in session, and utilizes it - you know, when the content really impacts and sticks with them!”

February is #CTEMonth! Join us in recognizing the amazing pathways Tennessee students take to build high-skill, high-wage, and in-demand careers! #AcceleratingTN #FutureReady #InnovativeSchoolModelsTN#CTEMonth

school counselors help students thrive by...“...teaching them about having good character, navigating strong emotions, ensuring that every student can identify personal strengths, teaching them how to communicate effectively and problem solve inside the classroom and with their peers. I also spend a great deal of time teaching them about how to recognize and handle bullying, as well as how to set goals, increase self-esteem, and how to adopt a growth mindset.” “Students also thrive by learning how to recognize their emotions, normalize talking through them, and engage in self-regulation.” - photo of Haley Herndon, EV Elementary School Counselor

i know students are thriving when...“I hear them laughing with their friends, when I see them smile-really smile. When they are doing well in school, and that's not when they are making good grades or passing with flying colors, but when they are engaging, when they are present, when they are wanting to do better. When they have at least one good friend, when they have dreams and believe that tomorrow will be better, and that there is always a tomorrow.” - photo of Tonya Ridley, GHS School Counselor

It's National School Counseling Week! The 2025 theme is "School Counseling: Helping Students Thrive.” Thriving means growing, succeeding and feeling fulfilled in all areas of your life, and at GCS, our school counselors work hard to help our students achieve that!

Our Board members are responsible for defining school district policy, approving the curriculum, maintaining school facilities, and adhering to state and federal education laws. Legal concerns and the complexities of school finance, including budgeting and taxation, require them to spend many hours in board training programs and personal study to enhance their understanding of these issues. #SchoolBoardAppreciationWeek
