Student Experience



Growing Outside of the Classroom

While academics are an integral part of the educational process, a girl becomes her best self when she steps outside of the classroom—and her comfort zone. At GPS, girls are encouraged to explore new interests and activities—to spark passions that speak to who they are and who they wish to become. From century-long traditions to leadership and service opportunities, once-in-a-lifetime travel, signature programming, coed life, and more, the breadth of programming at GPS allows students to face their fears, fuel their confidence, find their voices, and develop lifelong friendships with each other and their coed peers.


“For the past five years, GPS has been my home away from home. It has given me outlets like Terpsichord, Partnerships in the Community, and Candlelight where I can express myself by doing what I love. Through GPS, I have been able to build the most special relationships that will last a lifetime. To me, GPS is a place where I feel loved and supported by those around me.”
