Dear Moore Families,

Thank you for helping us kick off the school year with such positivity and support! We’ve loved seeing your smiling faces each morning and appreciate your partnership in ensuring a smooth start.

Beginning Monday, students will begin walking to their classrooms unassisted. For the safety and independence of all students, parents and guardians will no longer be able to walk children to class after morning drop-off.

Please know that our staff will be stationed throughout the hallways to warmly welcome and support students as they make their way to class. We are confident in their ability to shine and grow in independence!

Thank you again for your continued support in creating a safe, structured, and nurturing environment for all Moore scholars.

Warmly,
Dr. Olukoya
Principal, Moore Elementary

On July 28 & 29, GSCS teamed up with Wellstar EMS, Spalding County Fire, Spalding EMA, and Griffin-Fire Rescue to provide Cardiac Emergency Response training for teams from every school/campus in the district. Each team member received their CPR/AED certification and an invaluable experience in scenario-based drills. We aim to equip staff with the knowledge, skills, and confidence to respond decisively in emergency situations. Special thanks to Adam Marat, Glenn Polk, and Matthew Perry for their instrumental roles in these sessions.
