ATTENTION! Please see the alert from Grants Fire and Rescue.
This week we recognize and appreciate our amazing cohort of school counselors. Our school counselors support our students’ new ways of learning and growing. We appreciate their hard work and dedication in building better humans especially during this pandemic. School counselors are doing the work that matters, addressing the trauma and strengthening our students' social, emotional and academic well-being. The work of the school counselors truly embodies the GCCS mission by addressing the needs of the whole child and building a person for life every day.
So we would like to extend our heartfelt gratitude to:
Cubero & Seboyeta Elementary - Tawnia Manuelito
Mesa View Elementary - Peggy Romero
Milan Elementary - Dhanielle Atencio
San Rafael & Bluewater Elementary - Beth Armstead
Mt. Taylor Elementary - Vanessa Chavez
Los Alamitos Middle School - Linda Sanchez & Patty Lopez
Laguna Acoma Jr/Sr High School - Joselyn Glicco
Grants High School - Katrina Carpenter

GCCS would like to give a shout out to all of our School Counselors! We are grateful for all you do for our students everyday! You are vital to our success and we want you to know that we could not be great without each of you! THANK YOU ALL!

To all in the GCCS Community:
A message was sent out on social media this evening regarding a possible threat to the staff and/or students at "Cibola School". Confirmation was made through law enforcement that the message was NOT directed at Grants-Cibola County Schools. The District takes all threats very seriously and remains vigilant against any threat to students or staff. Once again, the threat was not directed at Grants-Cibola County Schools students or staff.
AND THE WINNER IS!!!!!
Stayed Tuned!!!
The Attendance Traveling Trophies will be awarded soon so be on the lookout!!
