GLPS Families,

As we head off to summer break, I invite you to watch this quick video. Thank you for all of your support throughout the year, and thank you for giving me the opportunity to work with you and your students every day. I look forward to seeing you all again in the fall, but in the meantime, I hope you have a wonderful summer. As always, I am #proudtobeacomet!

Dr. Bill Barnes
Superintendent of Schools
