Memorial Day
A reminder that Monday, May 26 is Memorial Day and our schools and central office buildings will be closed for the holiday.  As we observe Memorial Day on Monday, we hope you will take a moment to remember the brave men and women in the United States military who gave the ultimate sacrifice for our country.    

Keep Your Contact Information Up-To-Date
Parents should make sure that their child’s school has up-to-date contact information (home address, telephone number, e-mail address, etc.) on file.  Parents should contact the school office to provide updates.

Parents Who Have A Concern
If parents have a question or concern, they are encouraged to contact their child’s teacher or the school principal to discuss the issue or schedule a meeting. 

Providing a Safe School Environment Remains a Priority
Gaston County Schools is proud of its on-going partnership with the Gaston County Police Department, Gaston County Sheriff’s Office, and municipal law enforcement agencies, which are committed to doing everything possible to ensure that schools are secure and personnel are prepared should any type of emergency situation occur. Each school follows its comprehensive safety plan; as part of the plan, schools conduct random metal detection screenings as well as evacuation, lockdown, fire, and tornado/severe weather exercises. All schools are assigned a police resource officer, which provides a direct link between the school and law enforcement.
