Glasscock County ISD

Don’t forget—tomorrow is Where Are You Going Wednesday!

Last week Glasscock County FFA members were busy at District Greenhand Camp and District Fall Meeting. While there, members participated in leadership workshops, a small service project, and had opportunities to enhance their communication skills. Ivy Braden and Grady Ivins each led leadership workshops in their capacities as Area and District FFA Officers. GC FFA was well represented as 40 members attended across the two events! We are excited to continue the year!

Calling all of our FIRST RESPONDERS!

We would be honored to have you join us as we say THANK YOU for all you do!

Please slow down and stay alert! Our Bearkat cross-country runners are training before and after school in and around the school and throughout Garden City.

Help us keep our runners safe by watching carefully, slowing down, and giving them plenty of space. Thank you for looking out for our Bearkats!
