What makes The Girls’ Middle School unique?

Part of the answer, of course, lies in our name. But GMS is much more than simply a middle school for girls.*

Because grades 6 - 8 are a uniquely thrilling and challenging time in girls’ lives, we’ve created a curriculum and environment that tends specifically to girls’ intellectual, social-emotional, and physical development in these years.

At GMS, we offer signature programs that set your child up to seek their own kind of success, not only in high school but also in a rapidly changing world.

At GMS, your child will experience:

• Our hallmark, full-year Entrepreneurial Program
• Our hands-on, three-year Computer Science program, part of our strong STEAM focus
• A culturally immersive Spanish program, with tailored tracks for both fluent and non-fluent speakers
• An extensive array of extracurriculars and trips
• Opportunities to explore new ideas and disciplines through Intersession
• Informative, reflective, motivating narrative assessment
• Meaningful social and emotional learning
• Professional, personal student support
• The empowering Bennett Scholars Program

These programs help your child uncover a variety of interests and talents, so they can better understand who they are—and who they want to become. Here, we encourage students to think big, fail often, and then try again—developing a growth mindset that builds resilience and confidence. They form lasting relationships with their classmates and teachers. And they discover the pure joy of learning with fully engaged minds and hearts.
