Shoutout to Mrs. Amy Codyer for finding a great way to enhance learning with our touchscreen Chromebooks! 🎉 Students use the touch feature for virtual word work, manipulating letters with their fingers, making the activity interactive and engaging. Keep up the great work! 👏



🎉✨ Super Substitute Alert! 📚✏️
GDRSD superintendent Dr. Bruno stepped into the classroom today to fill in for 1st-grade teacher Mrs. Caulfield—and he knocked it out of the park! 🎒🏆
But that’s not all… 🥁 Dr. Bruno has already handed out Golden Tickets to 10 lucky teachers across the district, allowing them to enjoy a half-day of classroom coverage from the superintendent himself! 🎫👏
Who’s next to have Dr. Bruno lead the class? 😄 #SuperintendentInTheClassroom #GoldenTicket #GDRSDchat
