Every day counts! 💙

During the first quarter of the 2026-2027 school year, GESD achieved a 93.3% attendance rate. Plus, 2,100 students improved their attendance and 1,075 had perfect attendance.

Let’s keep that momentum going throughout the school year! 📈

🗳️ Election Day is almost here! Questions about Prop 320? Get the facts.

Prop 320 is a statewide ballot measure that would require certain districts to spend at least 60% of operational spending on direct instructional expenses. The measure does not apply to charter schools. For districts, meeting the requirement could redirect funds away from local priorities for students.

Changing needs could also shift the calculation, pushing a district out of compliance for factors largely outside of its control, including insufficient state funding for facilities and operations.

For GESD, declining enrollment, growing special education needs, aging facilities, socioeconomic challenges, and state-created funding constraints could make compliance difficult.
