Message from the Education Services Dept.
Thank you for visiting Education Services! We value our GFUSD community and work hard to support our school sites, staff, and parents. Our goal is to shine a light on all of the wonderful things happening at our schools, provide answers to questions when issues arise, and to grow and foster positive relationships between our school district and our community. Education Services includes: the Public Information Office, School Safety and Emergency Preparedness, Support Services, Health Services, and Alternative Education. We work with our school sites to maintain and strengthen PBIS and MTSS efforts, oversee attendance initiatives, and support our Foster and McKinney-Vento youth.
