💙💛 CHARACTER COUNTS WEEK 💛💙

The entire district has been focused on the importance of the Six Pillars of Character: Trustworthiness, Respect, Responsibility, Fairness, Caring, and Citizenship!

The week of October 19-23 , we’re celebrating with a fun Spirit Week to bring these values to life and remind our students that character matters- in the classroom, in our community, and in everything we do.

Character Counts at GKB!
