Students Come Together to Celebrate Dance

TIME TO DANCE: Dance students from Bell Intermediate, Garden Grove HS, La Quinta HS, Los Amigos HS, and Pacifica HS participated in the GGUSD Dance Fest yesterday hosted on the GGHS campus.


During the day, all 182 students attended breakout sessions where they learned different styles of dance (contemporary, folklórico, jazz, or hiphop) from professional dancers and dance professors from our local universities.


At Don Wash Auditorium, the dance students performed with their school dance ensembles, showing each other what they've been learning and preparing at their respective schools. At the end of the day, students collaborated in small group activities where they choreographed their own dances and performed them for each other. We know that this opportunity helps students feel a sense of belonging and has a positive impact on student well-being! #ggusdgoalgetters


Elementary Students Celebrate the 100th Day of School

Are you ready to see some seriously stylish seniors? Today is the 100th day of school, and Heritage Elementary Computer Science Academy students are celebrating in style by dressing up like 100-year-olds! From canes and walkers to suspenders and spectacles, these scholars are pulling out all the stops to look like the coolest centenarians in town. Happy 100th day of school! We love seeing what our schools do to ensure students have a fun place to learn (Goal 2)! #GGUSDPride #ggusdgoalgetters

Russell Elementary Students Win Attendance Recognition

Spotlight on Attendance! Students in Maestra Atilano's class at Russell Elementary Language Academy had the pleasure of hosting Ramon the Ram in their classroom because they had the best attendance for the month of December! Attendance matters! Our scholars are expected to be at school on time and ready to learn. This is just one of the many incentives our students work towards as we try to improve our attendance statistics!

Elementary Students Celebrate Kindness Week

It's Kindness Week and Stanley Elementary School students wore their favorite Disney clothes to showcase the magic of kindness!
