Mrs Haley Tyler’s class read a the short story “Tuesday of the Other June” which focuses on bullying. Students completed a research writing assignment and created a poster encouraging others to stand up against bullying.
Mrs. Kim Hunt's HeartBridge class takes a "mental health walk" after sharing something "good & positive" regarding themselves each week. Their mental health walk consists of taking food to the food pantry on campus. The students believe since the class is called "HeartBridge" that they should show "heart" for those in need in our community. The students bring nonperishable food items throughout the week to replenish the Free Little Food Pantry on the main campus. The students actually got to witness someone stopping to get food one day! They then continue our health walk and use the now empty bags to pick up trash on campus. We are proud of Ms. Hunt's HeartBridge class for their "heart" and efforts to make a difference!
Please note that Greene County Tech School District does not allow Valentine deliveries for Students or Faculty.
All of Mrs. Puckett’s 6th grade Literacy classes worked in groups today to apply the knowledge they have developed about Nonfiction Text Structures. Each station the groups visited had them complete various tasks and test their knowledge. They had a great time today!

Congratulations to GCT students Molly Baker-Huynh, who received 1st place and Ryker Hudson who received 2nd place in the Greene County Spelling Bee!
On Thursday, January 12, 2023, law enforcement notified the Greene County Tech School District of an investigation involving stolen property in the community. During this investigation, they discovered that a GCT Jr. High student brought a handgun to school last Friday with the intent to sell, and money apparently changed hands in this transaction.
The students involved have been removed from campus pending the police and school investigations. It is not believed that the gun was brought with the intent to threaten or harm any student or staff. The District is cooperating with law enforcement and conducting its own internal investigation.
Safety of our students, faculty, and staff is always a top priority.
