Gaston County Schools provides innovative educational opportunities for all students in a safe and nurturing learning environment through outstanding employees and community partners.
To help ensure success, a framework was created through multiple discussions that focused on knowledge, the character or disposition of an individual, Citizenship or civic engagement, and skills needed for the future. Through these discussions, a framework emerged; this framework is known as the Gaston Blended Portrait of a Graduate.
The Gaston Blended Portrait of a Graduate identifies three overarching sets of attributes with additional descriptors under each attribute. These attributes include the following:
- Character
- Growth Mindset & Perseverance
- Adaptable & Resilient
- Compassionate & Empathetic
- Independent & Responsible
- Knowledge
- Subject Mastery
- Digital Literacy
- Health & Wellness
- Civic and Cultural Awareness
- Future Ready Skills

These topics include academic support, social-emotional learning, and more. Our goal is to collaborate with our committed community partners to offer resources, programs, and services to meet the needs of every child.
