Drama Students Donate to Lions Club
|
The GCIT SkillsUSA Career Pathways Showcase Arts and
 Communications team, with the generous help of our GCIT family, collected 144 pairs of glasses and donated them to the Mantua Lions Club. The Lions Club has a program where they help people locally and internationally get prescription eye glasses they need and cannot afford.
Junior Drama students Liam Mc Monagle, Maggie O'Connor and Jacklyn Washington collected the glasses as a part of their SkillsUSA project. The trio also raised $325 to donate to Helen Keller International Foundation. The funds were raised by using recycled granite samples to create holiday magnets. The idea for the project was inspired by their junior class production of "The Miracle Worker" by William Gibson.

Teacher Class Pages

This feature is known as the "Student Vault." The feature is only available for teachers who have created class pages on the GCIT site.
Parents can create an  account and add their children's classes to their "My Classes" list. The parent account will customize the website and allow parents to see just the classes that they subscribe to and will also send assignment notifications to the email address associated with the account.
Students can create their own account with the added bonus of being able to submit assignments online should their teacher set the assignment up that way. In order to do this, students should print out their verification code that is generated during the registration process and bring it to one of their teachers for verification. This will then allow their account to submit assignments online to teachers that allow it.
Please see the documents below to help you in creating either a student or parent account.
