First Day Highlights at GHCDS!

Our Panthers kicked off the school year with joy, curiosity, and plenty of new memories in the making! 

In the Lower School, students spend time learning classroom routines, meeting new classmates, and building community through fun icebreaker games and activities. From practicing classroom expectations to making new friends, the first day sets the tone for a year full of teamwork, learning, and growth. 

In the Middle and Upper School, students experience Day Zero — a special schedule designed to help everyone ease into the year. With shorter class periods, students visit all of their classes, meet each of their teachers, and get a first glimpse of the exciting learning opportunities ahead. It is the perfect way to start forming connections and setting goals for the year. 

The energy across campus is incredible, and we’re so excited for all that the 2025–26 school year has in store. Welcome back, Panthers — this is going to be a great year!
