Admission
Welcome to GPS
Explore All That Is Possible for Her
If your goals for your daughter include finding a school that cares about who she’ll become as much as what she’ll accomplish, we invite you to consider the unique advantages of a GPS education. After all, a school is much more than the campus on which it sits or the accolades of which it boasts. Sure, English and calculus are important—and we have incredible faculty whose lesson plans are legendary—but the intangibles of education are equally important. Who does your daughter want to be? GPS is uniquely designed to help her get there.
New for Fall 2026 | For Girls in Grades 6-8

Through personalized, evidence-based instruction, students build skills in reading, writing, organization, and self-advocacy. The program helps each girl gain confidence, overcome learning obstacles, and grow into a strong, independent learner and leader.
