Attention GCT Patrons:
The Division of Elementary and Secondary Education (DESE) has offered an early start waiver for next school year. This waiver would allow GCT to start school during the week of August 12th as opposed to August 19th. We are asking for some feedback from patrons concerning the early start. Please provide your feedback using the form linked below.

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.

In Mrs. Diana's class we go on letter hunts and find the letter of the week. They take their pencils around and paper to see how many they can find. Look at where he keeps his pencil! He found one on the bottom of my picnic table!
Today Mrs. Brandi's class is comparing the stories The Three Little Pigs, The Three Little Fish and The Big Bad Shark. Our friend, Fanny, came out to listen because she didn’t know the story about the three little fish. Pippa is my assistant this week so she held the book for us.
We LOOOOVE Fanny and when she comes for visits, so today everyone got to give her a hug before she went back home.
