What a phenomenal last day of 23-24 we had at GMS today. Here's a collage of our celebration assembly and end of year Goodbye wave to the buses. One more thank you to our retirees and their combined almost 100 years of teaching, Chris Bumann, Karna Frerichs, and Tim McComber.
GMS 7th grade art students learned how to card wool and create a wet felted wool vessel. They layered it their wool around a balloon to form it in a water bath. Once it dried, they could sew or decorate it.
Stomp and Launch! It's Rocket day at GMS as our science and tech classes begin their final engineering and velocity labs and projects.
Thanks to the generous giving of the Geneseo Education Foundation (GEF), students in Mr. Eaker's 7th grade ELA Ingenuity class programed and flew drones through an innovative obstacle course today. Research, Engineering, Design and Aviation were all on display today at GMS.
We honor the brave men and women who made the ultimate sacrifice for our country, and we remember their courage, integrity and selflessness. #MemorialDay
Another great day at GMS. 6th graders wrapped up their Medieval History unit with a sessions day in all core classes.
Thursday was Orientation day for the class of 2031 up at GMS. We had an unbelievable time singing, eating, listening and laughing with our incoming 6th graders. Kids enjoyed some intense field day activities, then headed to GMS to practice locks, take tours of the school, have some Q&A with 8th grade leaders, and eat a "big kid" middle school lunch. We can't wait for 2024-25 so we can welcome these amazing students to GMS!
GMS 7th grade math teacher, Ms. Katherine Wohrley, was recently honored with a Maple Leaf Medallion presented by Dr. Brumbaugh. Two students nominated Ms. Wohrley for her dedication to helping them better understand new math concepts. Congratulations to you for your display of TEACH - LEARN - CARE of the highest order at GMS each day Ms. Wohrley!!!
As our 6th graders head out on our annual trip to Medieval Times today, here's some pics of their catapult engineering and launching in science classes this past week.
