Good morning, GCPS Families!
Registration for the Goochland County Public Schools Fall intersession is now open until Monday, September 25th!

Each intersession will provide a unique learning opportunity that merges student interest and teacher passion. From Be a Disney Imagineer to Just-in-Time SAT Prep, students will have the chance to explore a wide range of topics.
Intersession will run Monday-Friday, October 16-20, 2023 from 8:00 - 2:30 at Goochland Elementary School (elementary sessions) and 9:00 - 3:30 at the Secondary Complex (secondary sessions).
