I plan to continue to work with the faculty on our strategic plan, focusing on the institution’s 4 Big Ideas: Contribute to Student Success, Grow Enrollments, Think and Act as One Institution, and Invest in the Future of GMC. I truly believe that together we can make GMC Prep School an even better place to provide young people with an excellent academic education.
