Mission Statement

We are committed to building positive relationships, communicating respectfully and honoring the diversity of our students and community.  We will provide students with a solid academic foundation and equip them with the tools necessary to be leaders in the community.

Pathway to Our Mission

Teach, model, respect and encourage; this is what we do at GES!  Our school educates students by building positive relationships, showing empathy, communicating respectfully and intentionally choosing materials that represent the rich, diverse backgrounds of our students, their families, and our community.

We will prepare our students for success by providing them with a solid academic foundation and equipping them with the tools necessary to be whoever they want to be!  We will do our best to uphold our moral obligations as educators and to ensure each student becomes a contributing member of society and the future leaders of our communities.
