At our May School Board meeting, we recognized Larry Callahan of Manakin Auto and Towing for his service to GCPS transportation as our towing provider. Since he was unable to join us in May, we dropped by to present him his ECCHO award this morning. Thank you Mr. Callahan!
Impressive work by our fifth grade students @RES_Roadrunners! Students used their creativity, collaboration, communication, and coding skills to design and animate a theme park. Another example of excellence @glndschools!
After a three year absence, field days are back! Great to see our students having fun today at RES! Huge thanks to our staff and parent volunteers for making this possible!
Thankful for our partnership with the Goochland Education Foundation! Grateful for your support of technology to enhance our student’s instructional experience! Shared this technology during a lunch prepared by our talented students today.
It’s been three years since we have been able to celebrate our seniors with a walk through the middle school in their cap and gowns. Lots of smiles, high fives, and hugs from siblings, neighbors, and staff today on the last day of school for the Class of 2022!
Proud of our GMS and GHS chorus! Your hard work has paid off - you sound great tonight!
The Byrd fifth grade class of 2015 opened their time capsule this evening. This is always a very special moment! Fellow classmates smiling, laughing, and remembering their time together.
