Free Summer Meals for Griffin-Spalding children 18 and under starting on Monday, June 2.
Today, we pause to remember and honor the brave men and women who gave their lives in service to our country. Their sacrifice will never be forgotten.

In keeping with our annual tradition, we waved all of our students off yesterday afternoon and then walked all car riders to the front.
Have an enjoyable, fun summer, read every day, and stay safe! We will be looking forward to seeing you at Open House!

Have a fun and safe summer break!
We have come a long way on our total number of missing books! We are down to 42 books still checked out at this time. If your student still has a book (or two) missing, please help them look at home., in a vehicle, and return to school.
Our little free library (in front of the school) is fully stocked with books that would love to go home for the summer with you.
The GSCS Rising Kindergarten Summer Transition Program is an amazing opportunity to help prepare students for kindergarten. Space is limited. For more information, contact GSCS Pre-K Director Dr. Chris Bearden at chris.bearden@gscs.org or 770-229-3710 Ext. 10395
Join us for skating Thursday night, May 15 from 6-8pm! #ColtsCan
We currently have 102 library books still checked out. Please help your child check at home for their books if you have been notified they are missing. Great places to look: old bookbags, current bookbags, under the sofa, in the sofa cushions, under the bed, on a bookshelf (or book basket - books like to find their friends), in the car, in a closet...and so many other places.
