Resources

At Garden City Community School, we believe that in order to educate the whole child we must support and serve the whole family. One way we do this is by recommending helpful tools and resources for parents and caregivers who wish to continue their own education and learn along with their children. We believe in this educational approach, but we understand that it is new to many!

The following are resources that we recommend for GCCS parents and families.
