Current Programs
Spanish
We partner with The Gartner Spanish School to provide an engaging and dynamic learning environment. Our K-2nd session kicked off this fall.
We can expand across more grades should we meet the minimum of nine (9) students per grade group (3rd – 5th and 6th – 8th).
Please contact Kristen Hines (hines.kristenm@gmail.com) if you are interested in signing up.
Chess
We are excited to introduce our new partner, the Chicago Chess Foundation (CCF). This non-profit organization gives all children – with a focus on low-income communities –the opportunity to learn, play, and compete in chess. Inspired by their mission, we are piloting a new partnership where the GLS community will provide a donation to CCF to help further their mission, while also bringing an exciting chess experience to our students.
Given the success of our fall pilot, we will now offer Chess to 2nd – 8th grade. Please complete this form to register your student (max 16 students).
RegisterAmateur Radio
Amateur Radio: Amateur radio is a great way to gain knowledge and skill with electronics technology and for hands-on experimentation and application of technology. We are launching our Amateur Radio program in January, piloted for our 3rd – 5th grade students.
