GCMS will NOT be in session for Tuesday, January 16th due to the dangerous temperatures during the morning hours. We will engage in an E-Learning day and we ask that students engage to the best of their abilities in that process. The wind chill warnings will be lifted midday tomorrow and we hope to allow for evening events if safe to do so. Determination on evening practices and contests will be determined by 12:00 tomorrow. Activities slated for the remainder of today will proceed.
Thank you for your understanding and cooperation.
Sincerely,
Mr. Darnell
