🌑☀️Solar Eclipse 4/8/24🌑☀️
On Monday, April 8, 2024, a total solar eclipse will cross North America, passing over Mexico, the United States, and Canada. A total solar eclipse happens when the Moon passes between the Sun and Earth, completely blocking the face of the Sun.
GCPS will operate on a normal school schedule on April 8, 2024.
Due to the maximum showing of the eclipse being during dismissal time (3:04), we will not have a designated Starling viewing time. However, students and teachers will be provided with solar viewing glasses, that could be used at home.
For additional information, including safety measures for viewing see the links below.
