Gwinnett County Public Schools will hold a digital learning day for all students on Thursday, October 29. Both in-person and digital learners will participate in digital learning from home.

Due to a traffic incident on Highway 20 the school is experiencing an Internet outage, this includes phone service. As a result, all Zoom and virtual lessons will not be held at this time. The school will send follow up communication when service is restored.

We hope our students and school staff have a safe and relaxing Fall Break. Teachers return for staff development on Monday, and students resume digital or in-person classes on Tuesday, October 13.

The Gwinnett County Board of Education has proclaimed today, September 25, 2020, as Building Babies’ Brains Day in Gwinnett County Public Schools! Only 48% of children in our community start school prepared to learn. Early brain development is a key factor in making sure children in Gwinnett County are ready to thrive in kindergarten and beyond! Children exposed to positive early learning experienceslike reading, singing, and talking with caregiversare less likely to have a...cademic and behavioral problems in school. They are more likely to be strong readers by 3rd grade and graduate from high school. This early learning initiative is vital to our community's success, Building Babies' Brains Gwinnett offers a toolkit with resources and opportunities to help enhance brain development in children under the age of 5 here: buildingbabiesbrains.com.
