>The BEST (Building Experiences for Successful Teaching) Program was recently held for all teachers new to the profession and/or new to GCPS. This weeklong event provides an overview of some of the important practices of the school system. Some of the topics include Best Practices for Distance Learning & Introduction to Schoology, Celebrating Differences in Our Learners, Closing the Achievement Gap, Emergency Preparedness, and Understanding the Student Handbook.
