GCMS is proud to announce that we have earned back-to-back recognition from US News & World Report as a "Best Middle School." In determining rankings, half of the formula assessed the scores themselves and the other half incorporated the test results in the context of socioeconomic demographics. In other words, the top-ranked schools are all high-achieving and have succeeded at educating all their students. On a three-year cycle, GCMS garnered the recognition in 2022, and now again in 2025. We are very proud of our students and staff for maintaining excellence!
Please come out and support the American Red Cross at the GCMS Blood Drive on Wed., Jan. 29 from 2-7 p.m. Special incentives for GCMS Staff, Parents, and Students! #PursueThePrize
