Coffee with Calvin: GCPS School Counselors
In this episode of Coffee with Calvin, Dr. Watts chats with GCPS School Counselors to learn more about what they do from day to day. It's a lot, it's never the same thing, and it may surprise you.
Critical Thinking

Each month of the 2023-24 school year, we will spotlight one of our strategic priorities or Portrait of a Graduate competencies by sharing the stories of two clusters—highlighting their classrooms, notable events, community insights, achievements, community service projects, student organizations, volunteer efforts, and more.


Critical Thinking

GCPS students and staff make a point to reflect deeply about their own thinking, integrating diverse perspectives to understand the "bigger picture." They consider the benefits and barriers of evolving technologies as they learn to use those technologies to achieve their goals, and are critical consumers of information.


In February, we'll focus on Critical Thinking in the Brookwood and Dacula clusters.

EES Student Survey and Wellness Screener is open through February

GCPS will conduct the EES Student Wellness Screener and Survey for students in grades 3-12 to gather confidential feedback on their school experience, learning practices, and school performance. The survey will be open for students in grades 4-12 via the GCPS Student Portal from February 1 to February 29, with only the EES Student Wellness Screener administered to 3rd-grade students during the same period. Parents have the option to opt their students out of the survey by completing the online form or submitting a written request to the school. Access more information about the EES Wellness Screener and Student Survey here.
