WELCOME BACK, PIRATES! ⚓️

Today, the campus at George W. Munroe Elementary was alive and buzzing as we welcomed our Pirate Scholars back for the first day of a brand new academic year!

A special shout out to our community and district leaders who greeted our scholars with warm smiles and encouragement. We were also honored to welcome a special guest from WCTV, who featured our campus as the backdrop for the latest news and highlights from Gadsden County Schools!

It was a busy, productive, and exciting first day, and just the beginning of what promises to be an incredible year.
