GFS SCHOOL NEWS

Last week, our Middle and Upper Schoolers headed off campus for team-building, exploration and fun! In both divisions, fall trips are a much-anticipated annual tradition. 

Upper School Quest Trips

On Friday, Upper Schoolers took grade-level Quest trips to bond as a class. 9th Graders went to downtown Baltimore for a behind-the-scenes tour of M&T Bank Stadium, checked out the marine life at the National Aquarium and had a friendly competition at Top Golf. 10th Graders practiced their teamwork and communication skills in escape rooms at Mission Escape, then completed a scavenger hunt and then cruised the Annapolis Harbor. 11th Graders explored Washington, DC, including a stop at a special improv workshop at the DC Improv Comedy Club. Seniors had a sweet evening at Hershey Park for Dark Nights: Halloween in the Park. Check out photos below:

Middle School Fall Trips

On Thursday and Friday, Middle Schoolers had the opportunity to explore new places and get to know one another a little better. 6th Grade went to Camp Pecometh on the Chester River for teambuilding and a ropes course, then came together for an on-campus retreat followed by an escape room. 7th Graders explored Philadelphia, visiting the Museum of the American Revolution and the Museum of Illusions, before going to WJZ-TV for a special tour and then closing out their adventure at Top Golf. 8th Graders spent a full day taking in the sights and sounds of New York City, including Bryant Park, Spyscape, Rockefeller Center and an improv club.
