💛💜 Welcome Back, GPS Staff! On Tuesday, August 12, we kicked off the 2025-26 school year with a warm welcome and a busy week ahead! Staff have been diving into professional development, preparing classrooms, and getting ready to greet our students. Yesterday, all professional staff and paraprofessionals came together for an important learning session on “Trauma’s Impact on Behavior” — building skills to better support every student.
Here’s to a great school year ahead; we are excited to welcome back students on Monday, August 18!
