The State Convention for the Georgia Association of Student Councils was February 20 – 22 at Rock Eagle. As President School, the Seckinger Student Council planned and hosted the convention.

These students are Roshni Chaudhari, Lauren Chiru-Danzer, Mia Herrera, Shia Holt, Yumi Park, Annabella Rennie, Joy Shehata, and Haleigh Brooke Shorter. Four of these students were selected to present their capstone projects during student led workshops during the convention – Roshni Chaudhari, Mia Herrera, Shia Holt and Annabella Rennie.

We are pleased to share important information regarding meal accommodations on school days for students observing Ramadan in 2025. The United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) has approved a waiver allowing schools in Georgia to provide takeaway meals to students fasting during Ramadan.

These waivers allow eligible students to receive breakfast and lunch in a manner that aligns with their religious observance. Cafe Gwinnett will offer meals to GCPS students who are fasting during Ramadan. Meals will be available for students to pick up and take home from March 3, 2025, to March 28, 2025.

• Who is eligible? Current GCPS students who are fasting during Ramadan may receive a meal to-go.
• Meal distribution: Meals will be available for pick-up after school only for students who attend school that day. The location to pick up meals will be determined and communicated from the individual school.
• Meal Price: Meals will be provided based on Free, Reduced, or Paid eligibility and pricing.
• Meal limits: Only one breakfast and one lunch may be provided per student daily. Students who receive a to-go meal cannot receive a meal during the school day.
• Questions: If you have questions or concerns, please email communications@gcpsk12.org.

To participate, each family must register weekly for to-go breakfasts and lunches by completing the request form sent from through ParentSquare from the county office. Reminders from the county will be sent by the county each week of Ramadan to complete the registration form.

Please note that to-go meals will not be available for the Digital Learning Day on Friday, March 14. The menu and heating instructions are on our website.

If you do not wish to participate, no action is required.
