We know how important it is to set children up for success, and one of the key factors in achieving that is consistent attendance at school. Regular attendance helps children stay engaged, build a routine, and develop a strong work ethic.
For the 2024-25 school year, GCPS has identified four high-impact focus areas that align closely with the organization's mission and vision. The Blueprint in Action focus for January, February, and March is "Literacy Proficiency." During these months, we will spotlight how schools are empowering our students through literacy.
Check out the ways we are empowering our students through literacy in GCPS!
