HOMEGROWN
Homegrown employees are those who attended schools in the district as students before returning to work in the district as employees. The “GGUSD Homegrown” campaign has already garnered interest from nearly 500 employees who shared their stories through an online form. Some of these stories will be spotlighted on the district’s Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram social media accounts.

Christine Ly is #GGUSDHomeGrown
Christine Ly is a School Psychologist at the Preschool Assessment Center. She attended Zeyen Elementary School, Alamitos Intermediate School, and graduated from Rancho Alamitos High School in 2006.
“I encountered dedicated, inspiring educators in GGUSD who motivated me to push myself, work harder, and make a difference. As a previous student and as a current employee, I received help and encouragement when I needed it and also when I didn't realize I needed it. My favorite part of working for GGUSD is the ability to give back to the community I grew up in.”
Christine has been working in GGUSD for two years.
