So much connection happening across crews!
A few of our 8th-grade Crew classes had an awesome virtual connection with Ms. Goldberg’s class at Kelly Lane, and it was a huge hit! The virtual meeting was full of energy, laughs, and ALL students enjoyed playing games together while getting to know one another.
Back at GMMS, Mr. Janksi’s and Mrs. Fleming’s crews teamed up for some extra connection and fun of their own because everything’s better when you combine crews!
Moments like these remind us how powerful connection can be!

So proud of our students who are not just participating, but leading the work! This student leadership group stepped up in their very first meeting, demonstrating they are ready to help shape our school community in meaningful ways. Their voices matter, and they are showing us what leadership looks like in action.



Our staff connected through “Knot My Problem” during our faculty meeting, and some brought it into their Crew classes today!
The activity highlights communication, problem-solving, and collaboration, showing how focusing only on yourself or pulling too hard instantly affects others. A simple but powerful reminder of how connected we all are.
