This Week at GCMS:
It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas around the halls
of GCMS! Many classrooms have
decorations, Christmas scene doors, trees, bulletin boards, etc. Thank you to everyone for spreading a little
holiday cheer for our students. Many of
our students don’t get a lot of this sort of thing at home, so it is good to experience
the season a little bit at school. I
have just a few notes to share this week.
Congratulations KYA
Delegation!
Hats off to the GCMS delegation that participated in the
Junior Kentucky Youth Assembly in Louisville this week! GCMS won the Statesmanship Award for having
the best overall speakers at KYA. Payton
Abney became the first Grayson County student ever to be elected as KYA Governor. Several other students were recognized or won
awards: Spencer Cannon, Hunter
Pendergest, Stetson Higdon, Bailey Richardson, CJ Johnston, Kennedy Ferguson, and
Ryan Haycraft. We are also very proud of
Teresa Blain and Melanie Manion, who were inducted into the KYA Hall of Fame
for advisors. Great job!
Congratulations Academic Team!
Our GCMS academic advanced to the final match of the Knowledge Masters television tournament at Elizabethtown today. I have not heard yet how we fared in the finals, but we are very proud of the team for advancing to the finals!

Instructional Rounds:
We appreciate everyone who participated and helped with our
instructional rounds at GCMS this morning.
The group of observers was able to share some great suggestions for our
next level of work in the area of questioning.
We will take a look at the recommendations at our after school teachers
meeting on Monday.
Christmas Lunch:
GCMS would like to thank our teachers and staff and say
Merry Christmas with a Christmas Lunch catered by Kay’s Café on Friday. We will have the lunch set up in room 140, so
you will have plenty of room to stay and eat with colleagues or take a plate
back to your rooms. Merry Christmas from
GCMS!
