NRH2O Field Trip
A word about bathing suits:
-All boy and girl bathing suits need to be modest
-Girls are asked to wear either a one-piece or tankini swim suit. (Similar to Sky-Ranch Rules) If you only have a bikini bathing suit, we ask that they wear a rash-guard or other similar fabric cover-up.
-T-shirts are not considered a proper cover up for NRH2O as they will not be allowed down the slides wearing a cotton or loose shirt.

LEAD With GCISD
EPA's Energy Star Certifications Awarded
16 GCISD campuses earned the 2018 Environmental Protection Agency's Energy Star certification for the second year in a row! Buildings that earn EPA's Energy Star use 35 percent fewer greenhouse gas emissions than similar buildings across the nation.
Recognition from Energy Star is a reflection of GCISD’s success in implementation of the energy program and good stewardship of natural resources. Energy Star is a voluntary program that helps businesses and individuals save money and protect the climate through superior energy efficiency.
