Parent Resources
Welcome Parents! Please use this section as a resource for helping your kids succeed at school and life. I will expand this site all the time so please check back in regularly to find new links and information. Also, one of my favorite methods of communication about education, Eagle County, and GCMS is by using twitter. If you have never used twitter, it's a microblog which is super easy to use and can be a great way to find news, current trends, or the hottest topics. It can even be easily configured to send the "tweets" of specific people to your cell phone as a text message. The more I tweet about GCMS, I will be sending out reminders, updates, and other useful or just fun info. If you would like to learn how, click here to go to my tutorial. If you already use twitter and want to "follow" me, click here. If you would like to get my tweets as text messages on your phone, start following me, then click on the little icon that looks like a phone (it's next to the "Following" button).
