Learning to Think Critically
George School has provided me with a strong foundation to achieve future success. Academically, George has taught me how to think critically. When I’m presented with a problem, I’m confident that I can analyze and resolve it.
The Value of Many Perspectives
Amedeo Salamoni brings at least four to six speakers into his classroom every year to expose students to a broad spectrum of voices in his field. For example, though he can offer students expertise in clay, he might bring a glassblower into his sculpture class to explore other mediums students may be interested in learning.
The Importance of an Encouraging and Supportive Community
The George School community is one that really cares about and supports each other, and we all want to see each other succeed. Our lives outside of the classroom are just as important as inside of it. It is a place where I have been encouraged to explore and discover new passions.
Discovering Kindness
In George School, I’ve found kindness in many places. My junior summer, I joined a service trip abroad. I wasn’t familiar with anyone on the trip, and it was quite daunting to suddenly be traveling to Japan and to be spending time with new people!
Finding Joy in Dance, Basketball, Clubs, and Representing George School
I love dancing at George School because it offers the opportunity for those who enjoy dance to take their skills to new heights. We perform in front of friends and family during events such as our Winter Assembly and Dance Eclectic.
A Perfect Place
Being a senior is one of the best experiences I’ve had at George School thus far. I get up every morning to wash my face and brush my teeth. When I walk into the rest room I see all of my friends, those who are morning birds and those who
Celebrating an Accepting Community
At George School everyone is genuinely loving, caring, and wishes for one another to succeed.
Learning in a Pandemic
This semester I am attending classes as a remote-learning student due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. Sometimes I am not able to access Google or Zoom due to the lag in our VPN service. I was very worried about being disconnected from a Zoom class because I knew it would
Take the IB Student Challenge
Although the courses are challenging, your learning experiences as an International Baccalaureate student cannot be matched in a regular course. You learn how to work with others, organize your time. and create your own research projects.
Making Politics Personal
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.

Our Fall Open House is scheduled for Sunday, October 24 and I hope you can join me and the rest of our Admission team at 1:30 p.m. EDT. This is the perfect opportunity to take a deep dive into what George School has to offer.
New Great Reads for April
Ellen Labrecque shares new great reads available in the Mollie Dodd Anderson Library.
Diving and Learning in Bonaire
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.

International Students Feel Right at Home
Being away from home has taught me many things, but being an international student has taught me that everyone is different and not everyone will think like you. George School does an amazing job of making you feel at home.

French Immersion in Montrèal
On our second day of service in Montrèal, we all woke up reluctantly and exhausted. It rained off and on today which allowed us to cool down for the first time since we arrived. Trying to not let exhaustion consume us, we got ready to go back to Moisson Montrèal.
Learning French and Service in Montrèal
On this trip, we’ve witnessed the hardships of survival, experienced the power of grit and perseverance, and learned to understand the absolute necessity for communication. To change the world, we must begin by understanding each other—and ultimately, learn to love all people for who they are.
