GUS Alumni

GUS alumni are people who are fascinated with the world, and individuals with whom the world is fascinated.

As proud as we are of what our students accomplish at our school, we are just as proud of who they become.

GUS graduates are extremely motivated learners who pursue their interests with curiosity and passion. They take on leadership roles in academics, athletics, the arts, and community service. Beyond secondary school and college, Glen Urquhart School alumni build innovative and successful careers and contribute to their communities around the world.

I really do think that GUS was ahead of its time.

I hear people talk about all these new-age teaching styles and the latest and greatest in teaching, and I really felt that we got that, in the early 80’s, here at GUS.

Testimonials

“My child is known, accepted, understood, guided, and nurtured each day. I am continuously impressed by the richness of the curriculum and the depth of meaning embedded in each lesson. My child is being challenged and supported. He is learning and having so much fun each day. We couldn’t hope for more.”

— GUS Parent

“As they look back on their elementary, secondary, and college years, my three children value above all the time at Glen Urquhart when they were encouraged to discover their individual voices, explore the world around them, and apply themselves with diligence.”

— PARENT TO THREE GUS ALUMNI

“They all get the skills, they get the rigor that we expect of them, but the way that they go at it is different. There’s a lot of freedom here to get students moving in the right direction but taking different paths.’’

–GUS Upper School Educator

"It's rare to find a school like GUS that takes such full advantage of the natural and cultural resources in Beverly, Cape Ann, and the wider world of New England. This conscious attention to connecting students with their places helps them become active citizens and preservers of their natural and cultural heritage."

– DAVID SOBEL, place-based education expert

"From the day that I stepped into GUS, I knew that this school was one-of-a-kind. I knew that this was going to be different. I have never known better friends in one place.”
