Principal’s Message:


Jackie Carducci GJHS Principal
Jackie Carducci GJHS Principal

When I think of spring, I picture budding leaves, blooming flowers, and bright sunny days. But there’s one more thing that comes to mind this time of year—and I’m sure many of you are thinking the same thing…


Spring Break!


This long-awaited break is a great opportunity for all of us to pause and recharge. Just as nature uses spring as a time for renewal, I encourage you to take this time to rest, relax, and enjoy time with family and friends.


Our students, staff, and families have been working incredibly hard over the past few months, and that dedication truly shows. Breaks like this are important—they give us the chance to step away from our routines and come back refreshed and ready to finish the school year strong.


However you choose to spend the week, I hope it is safe, relaxing, and filled with moments that help you recharge. I look forward to seeing everyone back soon—renewed, refreshed, and ready for the final stretch of the year!


Have a wonderful Spring Break!
