VOLUME 34, NUMBER 7 SPECIAL RETIREMENT ISSUE – MAY 2014 A new adventure begins for 443 GCPS retirees As the 2013–14 school year comes to a close, 443 veteran educators and support staff members will mark their retirement from Gwinnett County Public Schools (GCPS). In total, our 2013–14 retirees have contributed a collective 11,023 years of their lives to education, and a total of 4,705 years to Gwinnett schoolchildren. In fact, 44% (193) of our retirees have worked their entire careers— in the classroom, office, cafeteria, bus, or shop— in this school system. Among this year’s retirees, 166 have 30 or more years of service in education, 12 have invested 40 or more years in education, and one retiree has 45 years in education! Our retirees include 10 principals; veteran central office leaders; a number of longtime support staff members; and many administrators, classroom teachers, coun- selors, and media specialists. Whatever their post-retirement plans, best wishes go with all of our retirees, along with our thanks for their service to Gwinnett County Public Schools. Congratulations to this year’s GCPS retirees!
