A DAY IN THE LIFE
A Day in the Life of Today’s GPS Girl
SNAPSHOTS OF A T YPICAL DAY FOR MIDDLE AND UPPER SCHOOL STUDENTS
ONE OF THE BEST ASPECTS of a GPS education is learning what makes you most passionate and using that information to choose what you study and how you spend your day. Here, we believe the possibilities are endless. Though each girl’s day is different, she knows she will always have someone there to support her, cheer her on, and help her reach her goals. What follows is a brief glimpse into the routine of both a Middle School student and an Upper School student.
7:45 a.m. Teacher office hours are in the mornings before school, so sometimes I will come in early if I can’t make it to help class that day so that I can get help on my homework or ask questions about an assignment or lesson.
8:30 a.m. I love starting my Fridays with art with Ms. Yu. We just wrapped up a unit and are about to learn how to felt!
10:45 a.m. In eighth grade, we have a yearlong class called Inquiry where we learn how to research, write a bibliography, and find credible sources, and then we pick a topic we want to research and present to the class at the end of the year. I'm looking at how the Olympics being in one place can be better for the environment and world and designing what I think a permanent home for the event would look like.

I absolutely love when we have smoothies for lunch! Besides that, I love the broccoli. There are about 13 of us who sit together most days.
