Christmas Comes Early with the Ducote's 

To kick-off the Christmas festivities, Mr. & Mrs. Wayne Ducote surprised each class with a special recess gift!  For years, Mr. and Mrs. Ducote have provided a gift for every child on campus and this year was no different.  Each class was provided with a recess bag filled with fun, outdoor activities while the younger students were given tricycles, an outdoor house, an indoor kitchen, and much more.  Hundreds of GSS students over the many years have benefited from their generosity, and we graciously thank them.  The toys were all purchased from Le Jouet Toys (located on Airline Hwy in Metairie).  THANK YOU, Mr. and Mrs. Ducote and Le Jouet!
