GCT Elementary PTO is selling PuraVida bracelets for $10 or 2 for $18.


Our school is sending Home Access Center (HAC) letters home today. You can use the information on this letter to log in to HAC to monitor grades, attendance, etc. There is a free app, called GradeWay, that you can download that you may feel is more user-friendly than the HAC website. If you choose to download this app, open it. Then you will need to search for our school district. If you type in "Greene", the app will give you 2 options. Choose the one that starts with "hac23". The other option is an old link and will not work. Then type in the username and password information for HAC and you will be good to go.




No School Monday, September 4th.


We are taking orders for PuraVida GCT bracelets! Orders are due by September 8th!
