There’s a light in all of us. Some are so bright, they can illuminate pathways, provide guidance, and warm hearts. At GCPS, we know that when someone is supported and celebrated, their light grows in intensity. We see it every day in our teachers, students, and staff. We are united by our mission to make a difference, fueling the success of our children and making GCPS the best it can be. Together, we “Shine.”

With the start of the new school year on August 4, we will begin featuring a student and a staff member each school day on the GCPS website, Facebook, and Twitter. Tune in Monday through Friday (with the exception of school holidays) to meet our shining staff and students! #Shine

 Please note, student and staff SHINE portraits were taken in Spring 2021. Photographers observed social distance during the brief photo sessions.

Gwinnett County Public Schools’ vision is to become a system of world-class schools, and our mission is to pursue excellence for each student. Our relentless focus on the vision and mission has led our school district to make great strides… however, there is still much to do.
