Dear Crescent Families,
Safety is a primary focus at Crescent. We have made great strides in working with the City of Griffin to keep our walkers, car riders and bus riders safe in the afternoons. The city police department has been most helpful and they have been ticketing cars that use Crescent Road during the time when it is closed (2 p.m. to 3 p.m.)
There is an additional measure that we can take to help the dismissal transportation process. If you are picking up car riders in the afternoon, please DO NOT arrive before 2 p.m. If cars are backed up into the road before 2 p.m., those drivers could receive a ticket for improper parking.
Also, please help educate your neighbors and family members that Crescent Rd. is closed to all traffic (other than school traffic) from 2 p.m. to 3 p.m. daily.
Thank you for helping keep our students safe.

GSCS continues to work closely with Spalding County EMA to monitor the weather conditions. The latest forecast indicates that ice accumulation is possible in Griffin-Spalding County. Out of an abundance of caution, no staff or students should report to school/work on Monday, January 26. A decision regarding Tuesday will be made on Monday. The safety of our students and staff is our top priority. Please use caution and stay safe.

GSCS is working closely with Spalding County EMA and weather services to monitor conditions related to a weather system that is expected to bring cold temperatures, precipitation and possible ice to our area over the weekend. We will continue to monitor this situation and will provide any updates regarding school operations for Monday via our parent communication system (phone message, text, e-mail, app), social media outlets and the district website at www.gscs.org.
