Gwinnett County Public Schools joins the rest of Atlanta and Georgia in congratulating the Atlanta Braves on winning this year’s World Series.
In celebration of our hometown team, Gwinnett County Public Schools is joining surrounding school districts in closing schools on Friday, November 5.
We know that many of our students, families, and staff are planning to take part in this historic celebration and we foresee that special events on Friday could have a major impact on school district operations and attendance.
Again, Friday will be a student holiday in Gwinnett County Public Schools. This will not be a digital learning day and there are no plans to make up this school day.
On Monday, 10/18th, progress reports were emailed home. These serve as official notice of your child’s progress so far this semester. Like last year, progress reports are electronic rather than paper copies.
Please remember that all students are required to meet the promotion criteria established by GCPS. We encourage all parents to review the grades and the promotion criteria with your child.
Due to DMS Boys and Girls Basketball as well as cheer, basketball intramurals has concluded for the fall semester.
We will have flag football on Monday afternoon and students should report to the PE field after 2nd bus call. Parent pickup is at 5:30 in the car rider lane.
Ping Pong and Cornhole will still take place on Friday mornings in room 10.433 on the Lime Hall.
Participants must have a completed permission slip on file before attending Intramurals.
Presently, our car rider line presents a big safety concern for our community and those traveling along Dacula Road.
Our bell rings for car rider dismissal at 3:50 pm. Parents may arrive on campus for car rider pick-up no earlier than 3:40 pm. This includes not parking in a parking space awaiting the start of car riders. Beginning Tuesday, September 7, any cars that arrive prior to 3:40 pm will be re-routed from the car rider line.
As an alternative, we ask that you park at Dacula Park until the start of our car rider line. If you choose to have your child become a walker and meet you at Dacula Park for the sake of expediency, you’ll be pleased to know that our walkers are dismissed at 3:50 pm as well.
When trying to access the car rider lane, cars should not park on Dacula Road in the Northbound lane (towards Dacula High) or the Southbound left turning lane (towards the bridge). Due to traffic safety concerns, we have been advised that this will become an offense worthy of a citation from law enforcement. Cars should join the car rider line along Auburn Road.
We are working diligently to see that we have a safe dismissal for our students while also maintaining safe roads you, the community, and our emergency vehicles. Thank you for your cooperation. We appreciate your attention to this matter.

Based on this guidance and for the safety of our students, staff, and visitors, Gwinnett County Public Schools (GCPS) requires the wearing of masks or cloth face coverings in our schools and facilities and on school buses, regardless of vaccination status.
The CDC indicates correct and consistent mask use is a critical step everyone can take to prevent getting and spreading COVID-19. Masks work best when everyone wears them, but not all masks provide the same protection.
With that in mind, Gwinnett County Public Schools requires masks to:
Fully cover the nose and mouth and secure under the chin.
Fit securely against both sides of the face.
Masks that have an exhalation valve or vent and masks made from mesh fabrics are not recommended by the CDC as they allow virus particles to escape and spread. As a result, these types of masks do not meet GCPS’ mask requirement.
