GES Focus this year:
Now that the dust has settled from our expansion—both literally and figuratively—it’s time to root ourselves more deeply in the daily rhythms, relationships, and values that make GES such a special place.
For us, regrounding means focusing on what matters most:
-
Knowing and supporting each child, one at a time
-
Building strong classroom and schoolwide communities
-
Caring for the spaces we share—inside and out
-
Deepening our place-based learning through connection with our environment and each other
-
Expanding service learning and community connections to pre-COVID levels
Alongside academics, we are committed to nurturing curiosity, creativity, resilience, and kindness—helping each child grow not only as a learner, but as a whole person.
