Attention GCT Patrons:
The Division of Elementary and Secondary Education (DESE) has offered an early start waiver for next school year. This waiver would allow GCT to start school during the week of August 12th as opposed to August 19th. We are asking for some feedback from patrons concerning the early start. Please provide your feedback using the form linked below.

Greene County Tech raised over $18,000 for Special Olympics during the Polar Plunge Challenge. Students and staff from each building helped raise money to assist our athletes participating in Special Olympics. Thank you to those who donated and to those who took the plunge!
SNOW DAY MAKEUP INFORMATION:
The Arkansas Department of Education issued a waiver that allows school districts to change their calendar from traditional to alternate. Traditional calendars calculate days, while the alternate calendar calculates minutes/hours. Districts are allowed to "bank" instructional time and substitute that time for inclement weather days. GCT took advantage of the waiver and was able to substitute two of the three days we missed for snow. This means we only need to make up one day. We will make up this day on February 19th.
February is American Heart Month, and on Friday, Greene County Tech Intermediate will wear red in recognition of National Wear Red Day to promote awareness for heart disease. We will wear red in honor of Maeve Garner, daughter of GCT Intermediate employee Mickie Garner, and all of our students, staff, and Eagle family who have been impacted by heart disease. Please join us in raising awareness for this critical health issue #WearRed #HeartWarriors
Proud of our Eagles basketball teams and how they represent GCT Intermediate! Keep up the hard work!
