In the aftermath of Hurricane Helene, we know many students are facing tough challenges. Georgia Military College is here for you, and we are doing everything we can to ensure no one is left behind. We have plans to provide extensions and support for those affected with the goal of completing the term. Your safety and well-being are our top priorities, and we’ll be flexible and supportive as we move forward. As Quarter 1 ends, we remain committed to your success, so please check here regularly for updates as we monitor recovery efforts. For those who cannot make it to campus, GMC will make every effort to work with you individually. Additionally, we are closely monitoring the development and potential impact of Hurricane Milton. At this time, the storm’s path is being tracked carefully, and there is no immediate cause for alarm in our area. However, we want to ensure that you are prepared and informed in case the situation changes. Your safety is our top priority, and we will communicate any necessary actions promptly on our website, through email, text, and social media as necessary. Learn More

Environmental Science Class Special Project

GMC Prep seniors in MAJ Leigh Scott’s Environmental Science Class recently began a special project to identify all of the trees on GMC’s campus. Ms. Cindy Gilbert, a Landscape Architect, graciously met with the students to check their work and make sure they identified the trees correctly. Mr. Jim Gardner, Director of Lockerly Arboretum, facilitated ordering tree makers which will be posted on each tree in December.

The next phase of the project will involve students doing research on the internet, resource guides, and books to compile data on each tree and include rubbings of sample leaves. MAJ Leigh Scott said, “The students then plan to publish a GMC Tree Identification Guide Book which can be accessed by visitors to our campus through Georgia’s Old Capital Museum or used by other classes for enrichment.”
