Roadrunner Spotlight: Ms. Tiller (Kindergarten) I am so excited to join the RES family! I grew up in RVA and went to VCU. This is my 9th year teaching - and 2nd year teaching in Goochland. Greg and I have two children, Kennedy and Nash who both attend RES! The whole Tiller fam is green and yellow! I love to spend time with my family and try out new restaurants!

Today we remember the lives that were lost on the 22nd anniversary of September 11, 2001 as well as the first responders and others who jumped into action and displayed unparalleled heroism and bravery.

Good morning, GCPS Families! Registration for the Goochland County Public Schools Fall intersession is now open until Monday, September 25th! An intersession is an opt-in, multi-day learning experience that combines research, creativity, and fun with no cost to families. 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). GCPS will provide student transportation to and from designated stops across the county at no cost and breakfast and lunch for purchase. Transportation will only be provided at the beginning and end of a full day of intersessions. Students attending a half day intersession will need to make arrangements for mid-day transportation. Registration is based on the student’s current grade level. Please understand that availability of these sessions is contingent on enrollment numbers. Sessions may not be offered if enrollment is low, so we encourage all to register soon! In the event that a course reaches student capacity, students will be added to a waitlist automatically. Visit https://gcpsintersessions2023.coursestorm.com/ for a complete list of course offerings and to register! If you have any questions don't hesitate to reach out to our Intersession Coordinators, Caroline Van Ness and Catherine Richards, at intersessions@glnd.k12.va.us.
