Athletics
Because The Girls' Middle School is committed to inclusion and participation, all competitive sports are open to any girl who commits to playing. We have no tryouts or cuts. To accommodate the range of skill levels and abilities, we field multiple teams for all sports, including varsity and junior varsity levels.

Skateboarding
Skateboarding isn’t only for boys! At GMS, the sport of skateboarding is growing by leaps and bounds. Girls have numerous opportunities to skateboard via the skate elective, skate unit in PE, Friday lunch skate sessions, and the Friday after school skateboarding program. GMS has top-of-the-line skateboards and safety equipment, and now boasts its own mini skate park including ramps and a half-pipe.
