Emergency-Red-School Closures
School Closures

Due to the forecasted severe weather and unsafe road conditions, all GISD schools and offices will be closed on Thursday, January 9, and Friday, January 10, 2025. All GISD after-school activities scheduled for those days are also canceled. See the Weather Procedures page for more details.

We launched #ScienceSaves to amplify clear, pro-science advocacy. #ScienceSaves is a nonpartisan campaign to generate an appreciation for the role of science in our lives. The campaign tells the stories of how science has benefited human outcomes, unleashed human potential, transformed our lives, and how it offers humanity the tools to overcome the pressing issues of today, from the global pandemic to climate change. 

“Flooding the zone” with pro-science information and stories of how science makes a difference is the #ScienceSaves approach to combating misinformation and confusion. The perception of science must change, and many voices are needed to make the change a lasting one.
