The first-ever Future Forward Fest was a massive success! It was incredible to watch our students lead the way and showcase the creativity happening in GCPS classrooms every day.
Big thanks to Braise-N-Smoke, the dedicated ITC and librarian teams, and the amazing community who showed up in force. We couldn’t be prouder of the innovation on display.
Thank you to everyone who attended and supported our vision. Same time next year? 😉 🤖

We loved seeing these Roadrunners go all out for Kindness Spirit Week. From working out problems in jerseys to dreaming of kindness in their PJs, these students proved that being kind is always a win. Way to lead by example, Randolph! 💚💛
How does our school budget come together? What factors influence the decisions we make? Superintendent Dr. Armstrong explains the budget development process to help our community better understand how we plan for the needs of our students, staff, and schools.
We also invite you to be part of the conversation.

We are incredibly grateful for our School Resource Officers—Deputy Michael Donithan, Deputy Trey Carter, Deputy Peter Paradis, Deputy Scott Leabough, and Lieutenant Ryan Leabough—who are a vital part of our school community. Working alongside our staff, they help ensure safe, supportive, and welcoming learning environments. Thank you for the relationships you build, the calm you bring, and the care you show our students every single day. ❤
Because of instructional time lost due to recent inclement weather, February 16 and March 20 are now regular student instructional days.
Thank you for your understanding and continued support as we keep learning moving forward!
Coding + Science = The Ultimate Power Couple! 🧪✨In Mr. Baird's classroom, students are exploring where technology and science meet. By leveraging a SchoolAI space, students engaged in a hands-on tutorial with RAISE to animate their names through code.
More than just bouncing letters - it's about building computational thinking that translates across every scientific discipline. 🔬
