This month, we are thrilled to award the Edu-Champion Belt to Mrs. Tricia Garcia for her outstanding work on the newest GCCS Food Services Request for Proposals (RFP). In a truly collaborative effort, Mrs. Garcia ensured that our students were included in the food selection process, giving them a meaningful voice in choosing what is served in our cafeterias. We thank her for her dedication to making this happen for all school sites and cafeterias across the district.
Grants Cibola County Schools proudly honors the brave men and women who gave their lives in service to our country. 🇺🇸
Memorial Day is a time to remember the heroes who made the ultimate sacrifice to protect the freedoms we enjoy every day. We also honor the families who carry their legacy forward with strength and pride.
As a community, we stand together in gratitude, remembrance, and respect.
From all of us at Grants Cibola County Schools — thank you to our fallen heroes. Your courage and sacrifice will never be forgotten.
