GMS 8th graders cap off their study of media and society by putting their creativity and citizenship on display in their very own Public Service Announcements. 

We are so excited! The GMS Entrepreneurial Program was highlighted in Fortune Magazine: check out reason #3 on page two…

On April 28th, GMS celebrated its Annual Scholarship Breakfast. Over 200 members of the GMS community came out to support this wonderful event and to raise funds for the scholarship program.

This year's breakfast featured keynote speaker Mary GrandPre, a world-renowned illustrator best known for bringing Harry Potter to life through her brilliant pastel and black-and-white illustrations. Mary shared stories from her own life and career, including her work with Harry Potter, and spoke about the power of creative thinking.

On February 3, author Rebecca Stead visited GMS and spoke to our entire student body. This January, her novel When You Reach Me won the John Newbery Medal for outstanding children's literature, the top prize for children's book authors. The novel is set in New York City in the 1970s, and tells the story of Miranda, a sixth-grader, who gets mysterious notes saying she needs to be saved from a future tragedy. The judges heaped praise on Stead's intricate book, explaining that every scene and word is "vital to the plot."
