Extraordinary learning happens each and every day on the eight acres in the heart of Chastain Park that Galloway calls home.
Since 1969, parents have entrusted their children’s education to this special community where we are devoted to cultivating a deep and abiding love of learning in our students. Galloway plays the game of learning, not the game of school, and the results speak for themselves. Our graduates are mature individuals who confidently embrace challenges while developing the knowledge, skills, and cultural competence to thrive as enlightened contributors in their chosen pathways.
When you step into our classrooms, you will sense that learning is a process, and our students are at the heart of it. Teaching and learning at Galloway is a shared journey that is both intentional and relevant – fundamental hallmarks of a Galloway education. Teachers and students are partners in learning, and the exceptional relationships that grow as a result are critical to helping students learn how to learn, all while discovering more about themselves and the world around them.
Thank you for taking the time to be here today. It is our hope that you leave with an understanding of who we are as a community of learners, having experienced first-hand the excitement for knowledge that we all share.
