The GAC campus is always alive with purpose-filled activity. As our parents have aptly said, "GAC never stands still." The school must progress if our children are to advance. Still, we remember something every day: GAC is about our children, not the institution. GAC students come with different gifts, and their learning needs to match—without a one-size-fits-all approach.

At GPS, we understand girls—how they develop and learn—and use that knowledge and experience to create a program and culture that are intentionally and purposefully designed for what girls n…
