CLUBS
Second quarter after school clubs are beginning soon! As a reminder, these are recreational clubs. They are not private lessons or tutoring, and they are not a continuation of the academic day. Please check with the club directly if you have any questions, including scheduling, payment or observing classes. All observations MUST be pre-approved by the club before parents can be in the classroom. These are third party organizations so you will need to reach out directly to them for any questions.
FELLOWSHIP FRIDAYS
In an effort to facilitate an opportunity for parents and kids to fellowship together on campus, we will be opening our playground on most Fridays from 3:30-5 PM. **This is not a school supervised event. Please be prepared to stay and monitor your child. We are only providing a space for Friday fun.
MEAL TRAIN
If your family is in need of the blessing and support of a meal train, or you know a GCS family that would benefit from one, please email: [email protected]
ROOTED IN PRAYER
Please join other parents on Friday mornings from 7:45-8:30 am in the Conference Room to pray over staff and students. If you are unable to attend, please use the link HERE and pray with us, from wherever you are, for these specific individuals and/or classes. “For where two or three gather in my name, there am I with them.” Matthew 18: 20

DRIVELINE
During the AM and PM driveline please make sure to use your blinker as you are entering and exiting the curb line.

We appreciate your partnering as we try to load kids as quickly and safely as possible.
