“I think this is an absolutely wonderful school system that has an excellent curriculum and staff at the GC South school! I'm a very proud supporter and I'm happily to be a part of it as a parent. I love the meetings we have and wish more parents could make it to them. As a whole I believe we can make our children just as proud of us as we are of them!
