As a way of continuing to promote child nutrition and adding to the many celebrations capping the end of the school year, Berkeley County School District’s Office of Child Nutrition Services will launch a special giveaway next week (May 20–24) that will offer some big prizes.
Elementary, middle and high school students eating lunch and/or breakfast next week will be entered into a drawing for prizes that include, but are not limited to:
*iPads
*Wireless earbuds/headphones
*Underwater cameras
*Projectors
*Action cameras
*Bluetooth speakers
Students will receive one entry into the drawing for each meal they eat. Winners will be drawn at random, and those who eat multiple meals will obviously have an increased chance of winning.


Congratulations to our Goose Creek Heating and Air Kindness Award recipient for the month of May!


Goose Creek Elementary would like to wish all of our Otter mommas a Happy Mothers Day! We are so grateful to share your precious babies (like this sweet baby girl) with you five days a week!

We need a construction crew to widen our doorways because some of our little Otters' brains are getting too big! These two young ladies have passed 100 iReady lessons! Way to go girls!
