At our May 6, 2026 Board of Education meeting, we got to celebrate four students who received the CABE Student Leadership Award. The CABE Student Leadership Awards program includes 7th and 8th grade students along with High School students who exhibit exemplary leadership skills. We are so proud of these students!

Happy Administrative Professionals Day to the people who keep everything moving behind the scenes!

This GMMS team manages the details big and small, keeps us organized, and is always ready to step in wherever needed. Their work may not always be in the spotlight, but it is essential to everything we do each day.

We are grateful for their dedication, flexibility, and the care they show to our entire school community. Thank you for all that you do!

Our 7th-grade artists have been exploring contour drawing by using one of the most familiar subjects they have --- their own hands!

Mrs. Bryanton kicked things off with a live demonstration, showing students how artists carefully observe the lines, shapes, and details of what they see rather than what they think they see. After watching the technique in action, students jumped right in and began sketching their own hands without looking at their paper.

March Madness is coming alive in our classrooms—French music edition!

In Ms. Harnett’s class, students are listening to and learning new songs, with some students stepping up to perform them. Beware… these catchy tunes might just stick with you all day!

A big thank you to Mr. Wik’s Crew for creating and leading today’s virtual Trivia event for the entire 7th grade. From writing the questions to running the game, they created an experience where every student could participate and feel a sense of belonging.

And congratulations to Mr. Godin’s Crew for earning the top score with an incredible 100% correct responses!

Student leadership builds connection and pride!

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!
