Panther Family, Let's show our GPE employees some love!!! We are celebrating our GPE employees next week (May 6-10) and we need our students' help with the following displays of gratitude!


April 22-26, 2024 is Afterschool Professionals Appreciation Week (APAW), a dedicated week to recognize, appreciate and advocate for those who work with young people during out-of-school hours.
Research shows that skilled and knowledgeable program staff are the backbone of program quality and are key to desired positive youth outcomes.
Why is it important to recognize Afterschool Professionals?
An estimated 7.8 million children participate in afterschool programs each year; for every child in an afterschool program, two more are waiting to get in. Every young person deserves quality afterschool experiences that positively impact their development. It takes skilled professionals to create these experiences. Because of the important role afterschool professionals play in kidsâ lives, they deserve recognition and support!
