Celebrating the magic of a middle school for girls

The middle school years mark an exciting, significant time for your child. They’re developing – physically, emotionally, and intellectually – at a pace rivaled only by their first few years of life. 

Studies show that at this age, girls, specifically, begin to feel the pressure to perform as the “right kind” of girl. Your daughter faces a choice: define for herself who she is or let the world do it for her.

At GMS, we know that sixth through eighth grade is an absolutely vital time to educate your daughter with expertise and intention. And we’ve made it our mission to do just that. 

Here at GMS, our progressive, evidence-based approach intentionally combines the advantages of a focused middle school environment with the proven benefits of a girl-centered community

We know that when your child learns in a school designed for them, for these critical years, they graduate to high school and beyond more prepared, confident, and capable

—ready for anything.
