Important CGPS Update - School is closed on Thursday, January 29, 2026. The side roads are still too icy and dangerous for the buses. Thursday will be a traditional snow day for students and staff. Even though our school district remains closed on Thursday, we want to take a moment to say thank you to our maintenance team. They have been working hard in the cold to clear the snow from our school sidewalks and parking lots. Please thank them when you see them after school opens again!
