We are proud to offer an adult education series and resources to support families in navigating the early teen years as students transition from lower school, to upper school, and beyond.
Please reach out to Brad Belin, assistant head of school + director of upper school.
The TWEEN years can be tough. The good news is, we’ve got some pointers for surviving this tricky time. The bad news is that the only ‘normal’ thing about being a tween is that everything feels (as your tween might say) ‘sus’, and we mean EVERYTHING.
Here at GUS, we are deeply aware of just how messy and unpredictable these middle school years can feel, both for students and for families. We are committed to meeting our students where they are, giving them routine, stability, and the support they need - even when the road feels bumpy or ambiguous!
From shifting friendships to testing independence, even GUS students are bound to face many of the typical adolescent challenges, which can often be hardest on parents and caregivers.
Science Teacher Emilie Cushing why she hopes that shining a light on outdoor learning, while not a new concept for GUS, will allow us to expand upon the rich learning experiences our campus offers all students.
