Congratulations to Mrs. Hurt and Mrs. Lenderman for being selected January 2024 employee of the month.
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.
Mrs. Miller's class did an activity today. The class had fun playing "Chasing Chickens Math" to help them learn their number bonds.
