Send Austin Your Legislative Priorities
In an effort to be a presence in Austin during the current legislative session, the PTA is partnering with the GCISD Council of PTAs to share our priorities regarding public education with the legislators who represent us.  https://wrm.capitol.texas.gov/home
 
100 Postcards
Our goal is to gather 100 postcards at GES to send to Austin. Anyone can write a postcard: adults or students.  Don't hesitate to design several colorful and eye-catching notecards!  Here are some samples.
