Today’s GSCS Back to School Celebration brought all 1400+ staff together for a motivational kick-off to the 2026-27 school year!
Student leaders welcomed the staff and were emcees for the event. Three GSCS Transportation staff (who have worked for GSCS for a combined 146 years!) kicked off the morning with song. Staff were inspired, moved and motivated by Educator, Author, CEO, and Professional Leadership Coach Jimmy Casas, who was the keynote speaker. A lot of staff recognition occurred with the naming of the 2026 Classified Employees of the Year, Counselor of the Year and Media Specialist of the Year. The 2026-27 Teachers of the Year were celebrated and the District Teacher of the Year, Jane Burke (SHS), was revealed and surprised with a check and free Chick-Fil-A for a year! Thank you to our Partners In Education Chick-Fil-A, Food Depot, Brightmoor, Marukan Vinegar and First Baptist Church who helped make this event great, especially Oak Hill Church for their generosity, hospitality and support! It is “Game On” for this school year!
