Roadrunner Spotlight: Ms. Coward (Special Education) I am excited to be at Randolph full time this year! This is my 15th year teaching and 3rd at Randolph. I have enjoyed working in almost every grade level and helping students find their successes and build their confidence! When not teaching I am at sports for my daughter or son, traveling, or spending time with friends and family. Go RES! #weRrandolph

Good morning, GCPS Families! Registration for the Goochland County Public Schools Fall intersession is now open until Monday, September 25th! An intersession is an opt-in, multi-day learning experience that combines research, creativity, and fun with no cost to families. Each intersession will provide a unique learning opportunity that merges student interest and teacher passion. From Be a Disney Imagineer to Just-in-Time SAT Prep, students will have the chance to explore a wide range of topics. Intersession will run Monday-Friday, October 16-20, 2023 from 8:00 - 2:30 at Goochland Elementary School (elementary sessions) and 9:00 - 3:30 at the Secondary Complex (secondary sessions).

Registration is based on the student’s current grade level. Please understand that availability of these sessions is contingent on enrollment numbers. Sessions may not be offered if enrollment is low, so we encourage all to register soon! In the event that a course reaches student capacity, students will be added to a waitlist automatically.
