The GC Area Technology Center offers a Phlebotomy pathway for our senior students. The students have to perform thirty venipunctures and ten capillary sticks before taking their certification test in the spring. There are 24 students in the program- which means 960 practice sticks!

Camp Dick Robinson has created a NEW Facebook page and NEW Instagram account. Be sure to check this flyer out and follow the new accounts!
Camp Dick Robinson Elementary and Mr. Patrick Kennedy have created a new focus on student fitness and movement, coupled with a schedule that almost doubles students' fitness time each week!
Join us live on Facebook at 11:10AM to experience one of Mr. Kennedy's Fitness classes!
Mr. Kennedy explains, "The idea is to get them more moderate to high intensity exercise. This will allow for higher brain function and better mood which will help them throughout their day and week. "
In his classes, students not only participate in exercise each day, but refocus and check in with how they feel.
Mrs. Parsons' GMS AG class had the opportunity to participate in a live tour of Stooksbury Dairy Farm with Farmer Grant for a behind the scenes look at his family’s dairy farm! The virtual tour was joined with Ian Graber, National Fuel Up to Play 60 Ambassador.
The students toured through the milking parlor, feeding barn, and processing facility. The students actually got to ask questions live, while Farmer Grant engaged with the class!
Please share this reminder to our students and families!
We are so encouraged to see the amount of items already donated at each school to benefit the Garrard Food Pantry! If you have not yet donated and would like to, there is still time! Each school has a designated employee and room number where items can be collected. We will be collecting items until this Friday, November 19th.
Thank you for supporting our community!
