We appreciate all the patience you have shown us in recent weeks with our schedule changes.
Our goal was to move to full face to face instruction starting Feb. 15th. However, we want to keep students and staff safe to the best of our ability, and we have some safety items that will not be in until the end of next week or early the following week.
Our new target date is Monday, February 22nd.
We appreciate the grace you have shown our teachers and staff, and we so appreciate the families here at G-A. Thank you for your support.

GACS is developing a plan to support moving K-12 classroom instruction from the Hybrid Model to a 100% Face to Face Instructional Model. Our target is for mid February, possibly February 15, dependent on School Board approval.
To do so, we need your help. As always, we strive to meet the needs of our families to the best of our abilities.
We need each family whose children are currently attending school in the Hybrid Model, to complete the attached online survey for each child attending.
We will make further announcements as soon as possible. Your feedback is always helpful & welcomed.
Thank you for your continued support of our students and the entire G-A family.
