Greene County Middle School

Dear Ram Families, It’s official: the last day of school will be Friday, May 23rd, with all schools dismissing at 12:30 p.m. So yes, your students will soon be free to sleep until noon and raid your pantry hourly—but not just yet. We still have four glorious weeks ahead, packed with learning, laughter, and at least one surprise fire drill. Please remind your students (gently, or with snacks) that attendance still counts, and there's plenty left to accomplish before we high-five our way into summer. Let’s finish strong—safely, joyfully, and maybe even a little ahead on our to-do lists. Thanks for your support, Mr. Abbotts, Superintendent Greene County CSD #RollRams

I’m convinced we have the BEST two secretaries on the planet! Seriously—these ladies are the glue that holds everything together at GCMS. They keep us running like a well-oiled machine, handle a million things at once, and still manage to do it all with a smile. I’d be completely lost without them! Superhumans isn’t even a strong enough word. Thank you both for being the heartbeat of our school—you make GCMS the best place ever! Thank you Heather and Nikkie for all that you do!! ❤️🫶🏼🖤

Friendly reminder (fee statements went out in the mail on Friday, 4/18)!

🚍💛 Greene County Schools are Celebrating Our Everyday Heroes! 💛🚍 Today, we roll out a huge THANK YOU to our incredible bus drivers who safely transport our students to and from school every day! 🛑✨ Your dedication, patience, and care create a journey filled with safety and care. You are often the first friendly face students see in the morning and the last to wish them a great evening — and that matters more than words can say. 👏 Let's all take a moment to appreciate the drivers who make sure the wheels on the bus keep going 'round and 'round
