These amazing ATK Bears were chosen by their teachers for showing our 3 B’s:
⭐ Be Responsible
⭐ Be Respectful
⭐ Be a Leader
We are so proud of them for setting a great example each day!
❤️🖤 At ATK, Every Bear Is a Leader!

📚 Informational Texts in Action at ATK! Ms. Jones brought her students to the media center for hands on learning! Students explored nonfiction books while practicing how to identify the topic, main idea, and text features. Learning beyond the classroom! ❤️🐻



This morning, we had a little power outage, but that didn’t stop the learning! Ms. Evans’ class was resourceful and found a way to keep the learning going, even without the lights!
And just like that… LET THERE BE LIGHT! 💡😂 We’re back up and running!
At ATK, the power may go out, but the learning stays ON! 📚❤️










Today, we celebrate the skilled professionals who work behind the scenes to keep our schools safe, functional, and ready for learning. From maintenance and repairs to construction, electrical, plumbing, HVAC, and so much more, your expertise and hard work make a lasting difference every day.
We appreciate everything you do to keep our schools running strong! 💙
Join us in saying THANK YOU to our incredible tradesmen! 👏🔧

Our ATK Bears had a DOT-tastic time celebrating International Dot Day! From colorful dots to creative activities, our Bears showed us that even the smallest dot can make a BIG mark!
Ms. Gladney’s class even took it a step further with their project, “But Is It Just a Dot?” 🤔🎨 What a fun way to get our Bears thinking, creating, and using their imaginations!
Keep shining, creating, and making your mark, Bears! 🐻❤️🖤









Today, we celebrate the incredible IT professionals who keep our schools connected, secure & running smoothly every day!
From troubleshooting technology challenges to supporting classrooms, protecting our systems, and helping staff and students stay connected, your expertise and dedication make a tremendous difference across our school district.
Thank you for being the problem-solvers, innovators, and behind-the-scenes heroes who help keep learning moving forward! We appreciate all that you do! 💙
Happy IT Professional Day! 🎉


YUM! Learning is extra sweet in Ms. Cotton’s class! 🍫📊Our students had such a fun time using M&M’s to practice graphing and math skills. Who knew math could be this delicious? 😋
Hands on learning + a sweet treat = a great day of learning! ❤️💙

Every school day matters! When students attend school regularly, they have more opportunities to learn, build relationships, participate in activities, and reach their full potential.
This September, let’s work together to make every day count. Families, teachers, staff, and our entire community all play an important role in supporting good attendance.
🎯 Be Present. Be Powerful. Be Your Best!

Griffin-Spalding County School System (GSCS) is so very thankful for all of our Partners in Education. So many businesses and organizations help provide opportunities and experiences for our students and teachers. Our district partners that each contribute in excess of $10,000 in value to help students are Brightmoor, Chick-fil-A, Dairy Queen, First National Bank, Georgia Banking Company, Marco's Pizza, Piedmont Fayette Hospital and United Bank. Thank you! Many others support the REACH and similar scholarships, individual schools, fine arts, athletics, and more. Some, like Norcom, provide school supplies. Some take part in the Partners in Education Fundraiser Golf Tournament (Sept 25 this year). Others serve as mentors and reading tutors for students. Community churches host events, volunteer at schools and pray for our students and staff. Thank you Griffin and Spalding for supporting our future through public education. We need you and we appreciate you!
