Each spring PTO Mini Grants are awarded to GAC faculty to fund special requests that enhance classroom learning. Grant requests are submitted by teachers after a principal review and then the PTO Board selects the recipients. Previous PTO mini grant awards have provided:
Early Childhood Village: Multi-sensory learning tables and training
Elementary: ActivBoards for classrooms
Junior High: Pottery Wheels for Art department
Senior High: Interwrite Tablet for Math department
PTO volunteers provide lunch and special treats for GAC faculty and staff on certain “Teacher Appreciation” days during the school year.
Each year the PTO sponsors the GAC Faculty Birthday card. Artwork for the card is selected each year from a collection of GAC student art.
