HUGE KUDOS to Mark Neri, who with Sarah Warner instructed, prepared, rehearsed, coordinated and conducted our great Concert Band and Jazz Band in Thursday nights' amazing first ever OUTDOOR Spring Band Concert right in front of the school, on a beautiful May evening! Our first on-site, in-person arts event at GMHS since 2019, and the kick-off to our final weeks of school! Bravo! We look forward to seeing Mindy Shilansky do the same with our Concert Choir and Chamber Singers next Thursday in our same new concert venue!
Congratulations to GMHS Scholar Athletes Anna Wix and Tyler Mackowski!!
Kudos to our musicians!
Nick Boyd, Owen Danke, Linus Waskan, Prior Waskan and Chase McGee, along with Mr. Maltese and Mrs. Shafer, present Virtual Activities, including our successful start up Bears Broadcast club and our amazing Poetry Out Loud program’s virtual version, in the BOE Spotlight! Chase even recorded his state submission live, recorded by Bears Broadcaster Nick!
