We would like to share his message and words of encouragement with the entire GISD community in the hope that you might also find nuggets of wisdom in his message that will encourage you during this challenging time in our lives. Hal reminds us “The greater the challenge, the greater the lesson.” Thank you Hal for your message, and thank you to the families of GISD for your support in helping us in our mission to educate your children.
