📢 Attention Gilmer County Families 📢
Report cards are coming home today! Along with your child’s report card, you will also receive a Student Attendance Report, which provides an attendance rating for your child so far this school year. You can expect to see these reports at the end of every 9 weeks to help track attendance progress.
In addition, a magnetic GCS calendar will be coming home to help you stay informed of important dates throughout the school year!
Regular attendance is essential for student success, so please review the report carefully. If you have any questions, don’t hesitate to contact your school’s office.
Thank you for partnering with us to ensure the best for our students! #GoGilmer
We want to give a huge thank you to Principal JT Fox for everything he’s done to make GCES such a fantastic place! Mr. Fox brings fun and energy no matter what we are doing. He has made elementary school an adventure for everyone. While we’re sad to see him go, we know that he is going to bring so much positivity to Gilmer County High School. The big kids better get ready—they're about to have the coolest principal in town! One 5th grader said it best, “The really cool part is, Mr. Fox gets to be one of my principals from preschool all the way til I graduate!” Best of luck, Mr. Fox, and don’t forget to come back and visit!
