Upper School Stories

Welcome to Upper School!

9th – 12th Grade

At Germantown Academy, 我们的老师力求有目的地了解学生, genuine ways, 和他们一起走过他们的路,穿过 Upper School. 我们的老师有能力认识到优秀的潜力或激情的火花,创造了一个培育但具有挑战性的环境,在这个环境中,我们的学生可以充分发挥他们的天赋.

我们鼓励学生深入思考并提出问题, to investigate and to discover, and to learn with and from one another. While our college prep curriculum certainly provides students with excellent preparation for college and beyond, 它也提供了机会去探索一个全面的课程学习和追求现有的兴趣领域. We encourage our scholars, our athletes, and our performers to challenge themselves, to try, on occasion to fail, and, most importantly, 培养韧性和坚持不懈的决心.

我和妻子能给我的两个儿子一个在这所学校学习和成长的机会,这是我送给他们的最好的礼物.

他们在十大体育外围平台排名的经历并不容易. 他们的能力不断受到考验, and they have had plenty of long days and nights.

Like every student at GA, 他们必须学会如何平衡学习和学习之间的时间, sports, music, volunteering, and activities outside of school. 但这一切都为他们应对未来的挑战做好了准备.

我坚信,由于他们在GA接受的教育,他们都拥有在生活中取得成功所需的所有技能.
