Glascock County Schools

The Glascock County School System has one Pre-K through 12 school, the Glascock County Consolidated School, which serves approximately 630 students, and is located in Gibson, GA, approximately 50 miles west of Augusta.  GCSS focuses on improving student instruction by motivating students to learn, improving thinking and cognitive capabilities, and applying knowledge and reasoning with technology.  GCSS takes pride in the dedication of its faculty, staff, and students, and the ongoing support of parents and community members.  The commitment and enthusiasm of these stakeholders are truly the strengths of our school system.  Below are some of the system’s academic accomplishments from recent years.
