Week of September 3rd...

Hello Ranchers!   

What a great week!  Minus AM transportation (and we are working on that), I can not ask for a better first week. It took everyone on the ranch to make this happen. Thank you!

Please continue to set high expectations and deliver quality instruction. With all the classroom visits Mrs. Cutler and the admin team did, we found many common positive observations; a visually welcoming classroom, engaging and exciting activities that reviewed classroom and school wide expectations, greeting all visitors with respectful and responsive service, and more. Thank you, thank you, thank you.

FYI - OneCard will not start until we communicate to the entire staff - stay tuned.

Please take a moment to catch up on the safety/security modules GCS requires all staff to complete.  https://guilford-nc.safeschools.com/

Please assist the counseling team with consistently sharing information from their department (through your e-list, reminds, on your white board, etc.)

Seniors should start to work on college applications.

FASFA opens up Oct. 1 so start to begin the application with parents (https://studentaid.ed.gov/sa/fafsa), go to www.cfnc.org for one stop shop for scholarships searches, apply for college, study for tests, send transcripts, and much more.

Look at counseling website for more information on SW site.

Seniors need to complete the NC Residency which is required by all NC Schools. That is also located on cfnc.org.

Students, especially juniors and seniors, begin to tour schools. Register on the college site.

Juniors and sophomores begin to study for PSAT held on October 16th. Go to www.collegeboard.org for study skills.

  

Check remind and emails weekly for information from the counseling department
