In classrooms across GMS today, students and staff have created a learning storm. Mr. J hosted an engaging Geography workshop on his trip to Western Europe, and 7th ELA students debated the Exon Valdez man-made disaster in an intense Socratic Seminar.






The Machine Shed was hoppin up at the GMS tonight. 200+ students danced the spring night away to some oldies and newbies. Make it a great weekend everyone!




Congrats to our GHS Students of the Week. These students were nominated by staff for their positive impact on our school!

What a great week at GMS! Contig Math club was packed and intense, cake baking in FACS was both creative and delicious, and our incoming 6th grade families joined us for their first glimpse at middle school.

We have a group of fourth graders at Millikin who sing, dance, and greet our students every Friday morning. Sometimes, they even bring out the bubble machine or hand out candies. They help make our building so fun and welcoming!
