Garrett County Public Schools (GCPS) proudly honored the dedicated employees who are retiring during the 2024-25 school year during a special retirement dinner held in their honor. The event, which brought together colleagues and family members, celebrated decades of service, leadership, and commitment to the students and schools of Garrett County.
The evening was filled with heartfelt reflections, laughter, and expressions of gratitude for the contributions made by this year’s retirees. Each retiree in attendance was recognized individually for their years of service and the impact they’ve had on their school communities.
The 2024-25 GCPS retirees include educators, administrators, and support staff from across the county, many of whom have served for decades. Their collective experience and care have helped shape generations of learners and left a lasting legacy in Garrett County.
GCPS extends its warmest congratulations and deepest thanks to all 2024-25 retirees. Your work has made a difference, and your presence will be missed.
𝐆𝐂𝐏𝐒 𝐒𝐮𝐦𝐦𝐞𝐫 𝐅𝐨𝐨𝐝 𝐒𝐞𝐫𝐯𝐢𝐜𝐞𝐬 𝐏𝐫𝐨𝐠𝐫𝐚𝐦 𝐑𝐞𝐭𝐮𝐫𝐧𝐬 The Garrett County Public Schools (GCPS) Food & Nutrition Services Department is happy to announce the return of the Summer Food Service Program. Distribution will be for seven days of free breakfasts and lunches and will begin the week of June 16, 2025. There are some changes this year to the Summer Food Service program, due to Federal clarifications in the regulations. Families or a designated person must register to receive meals. Families can register using an online form (https://forms.gle/SVJWiZd9L5xWgZXt7) or at one of the meal sites. A list of meal sites can be found on the GCPS website www.gcps.net/summer-food-service. Families that have not pre-registered will be required to bring their child(ren) or a report card with them the first time to pick up meals. Additionally, only two meals per day will be served this year. Seven days of breakfasts and lunches will be distributed per week. These meals will include fresh fruits and vegetables, milk, and entrees. There are thirty-eight (38) sites to choose from, on Tuesday or Wednesday each week. Some sites will be in the afternoon while others will be in the evening, enabling you to pick the one that best suits your schedule. Please remember that you can only pick up from one site per week. Students attending summer school are asked not to pick up meals at one of the sites. Meals will be provided at each school, and weekend bags will be provided to those students attending. Other children in the family will need to pick up at one of the meal sites. Families from outside of Garrett County are welcome, but will need to preregister or bring their children with them. Additional information can be found at www.gcps.net. If you have any questions, please call Scott Germain at 301-334-8917, 888-262-2792, or email at scott.germain@gcps.net. All meals are free of charge to children 18 and under, regardless of whether they are enrolled in Garrett County Public Schools. This institution is an equal opportunity provider.
