Beloved TV personality Fred Rogers often told this childhood story about how his mother would comfort him when scary events on the news frightened him. “My mother would say to me, ‘Look for the helpers. You will always find people who are helping.’ To this day, especially in times of disaster, I remember my mother’s words, and I am always comforted by realizing that there are still so many helpers— so many caring people in this world.”
On your social media pages, give a shout-out to those who have helped you and your student during DLD! #GCPSBetterTogether #GCPSHelpers
We want to thank all of the “helpers” who have been there to support our students, staff, schools, and community during these difficult times… at home and in virtual classrooms, in kitchens and on bus routes, in pick-up lines and in offices, and in maintenance shops and in hallways.
We appreciate all that you have done, and will continue to do, to keep our students safe and learning!
