Our Garden Park students wrapped up the final test of the OCDE Academic Pentathlon today — something they’ve been preparing for since fall!

They worked hard, supported and encouraged one another, and came together as a cohesive team. They embraced their GGUSD academic and personal skills, and showed up for each other!!! Way to go Geckos!! 🦎

This year’s theme, The Roaring Twenties, brought history to life as our Division 1 team tackled five challenging academic events and shined in the high‑energy Super Quiz relay—where they earned 1st place! 👏🏼🥇

A huge KUDOS to Ryan, who earned 1st place in every category AND 1st place overall (individual) — an absolutely outstanding achievement. And to Emmilne, who earned 1st place in Fine Arts and Social Science, 2nd place in Literature and Science, and 4th place overall (individual).

Congratulations to our amazing Garden Park Pentathlon team for excelling at the OCDE Academic Pentathlon! Their dedication, teamwork, perseverance, and school spirit made today unforgettable ♥️🤩.
