GCISD is excited to partner with the Tarrant County
Hospital District/John Peter Smith Health Network to
offer a JPS school-based health center for GCISD
families. The clinic opens Monday, January 14, to
begin providing general health care services to GCISD
students and their siblings up to age 18.
The clinic is housed in the District's former
Instructional Support Center, next to Timberline
Elementary in Grapevine. It will be run by medical
personnel from JPS and will provide services such as
treatment of minor illnesses and injuries, routine lab
work, immunizations, school physicals and general
checkups.
Clinic hours of operation are 8 a.m.-Noon and 1-5
p.m. weekdays, with the exception of school holidays
and the week of July 4. Call for same-day
appointments. The community is invited to a dedication event and reception at 2 p.m. Wednesday, January 16 at the clinic. Please come see what an exciting benefit this is for our families.
GCISD has a variety of exciting events and activities happening every week at campuses throughout the District. From PTA meetings and school programs to District celebrations and student achievements, you're sure to find something in Around the District.
