George School gives everyone the opportunity to experience and try anything they want, and to be a fully well-rounded student and an athlete.

As a teacher, my duty is not just to teach mathematical concepts, but to inspire curiosity and demonstrate how what we are learning inside the classroom has application outside of the classroom and outside of my discipline. Programming can be a way of making mathematics come to life, and it is a joy to see students take the initiative in this way.
There are so many clubs to join at George School, and every club is happy to have new members stop by their meetings and learn what their unique group is all about.

Politics is indeed personal, and it is my hope that our students’ learning isn’t just relegated to complex terms and theories, but the idea that politics requires their participation and their passion.

In Bonaire, it was really amazing to think about how everyone else is living their lives on land, while the fish and the corals are living separately in a different world underwater. The fish and other marine life that amaze us are just normal, daily life for everything that is living subaqueously.

At George School, I found the rare ability to feel so comfortable within my own skin while pushing myself to be the best possible version of myself that I can be.
My dorm became my second home, I became more involved in helping out the dorm community. I began to realize that George School wasn’t only a high school but a caring community and will forever be my second home.
Wacky adventures, worldwide friends, and around the clock support have allowed me to feel at home in every dorm I’ve lived in at George School.
