Secondary Principal Message
Welcome to another exciting year at George Washington Academy! Since 1998, GWA has been dedicated to equipping minds and building character, providing a dynamic, inclusive, and academically rigorous environment for our high school students. Supported by an outstanding teaching staff and excellent facilities, we focus on helping each student reach their fullest potential by being Ready, Respectful, and Responsible—the “3 Rs” that shape our program and community values.
At GWA, we foster a collaborative and cross-curricular approach to learning, designed to inspire students to connect ideas across subjects, work effectively with others, and develop a well-rounded understanding of the world. We offer multiple graduation pathways, including a wide range of course options to meet diverse goals and the International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme for Grades 11 and 12, a highly respected credential recognized worldwide.
Our commitment to holistic education extends beyond academics. We encourage students to participate in activities including athletics and service, where they can build skills, develop empathy, and positively impact both our school and the community.
The Secondary Handbook is a vital resource, outlining essential policies and procedures to support student success. With clearly defined expectations, we aim to foster an environment where every student can thrive.
I look forward to working closely with each of our students and families, both new and returning, as we continue to build on our legacy of excellence and character-building.
Warm regards,
Dr. Pierre
Secondary Principal
Academic Approach
At George Washington Academy, our commitment to a relevant, rigorous, and meaningful education drives our curriculum design. Through Common Core standards in middle school and the International Baccalaureate (IB) Diploma Program in grades 11-12, we guide students through an engaging and integrated learning experience that equips them for academic success and real-world applications.
Beyond Classrooms
Preparing for life beyond the classroom:
Real-world learning is woven throughout the GWA experience. Our students participate in internships, field trips, service projects, and community engagement, gaining insight into their communities and potential career paths. These experiences allow students to apply their learning in practical settings, enhancing their understanding of themselves, their communities, and the impact they can have on the world.
At GWA, we prepare students not just for the next step academically, but for meaningful contributions in life beyond the classroom.
