GCPS is using an App to support families who have students that ride our buses. The "Here Comes the Bus" mobile app is available for all bus riders! This app is free, easy to use and tells you in real time exactly where your child's bus is located. This is a super convenient way to know when and where your child's bus is at all times. It also sends you notifications and emails when the bus arrives at your child's stop and at his or her school.
Please click on the image to view instructions on how to download the App.

Students Honor Dr. Martin Luther King Jr

While learning watercolor painting techniques, each student was given a piece of a larger image to paint using their new skills. The students realized that each piece belonged to a larger whole, but had to wait until all pieces were painted and unified to see the solution. When those painted squares came together from diverse hands, the students saw how their efforts came together to honor Martin Luther King Jr., the most important voice of the American civil rights movement, which worked for equal rights for all.
