GE Model School

Great Expectations

As a Great Expectations (GE) school, we are "Transforming Lives Through Education."

Great Expectations is founded on the beliefs that “education is the key to solving the problems of our society, educators want to become more skilled in their quest to euducate students, and students want to learn. The founders of GE believe, while there is ample talk of educational reform, not enough is being done to positively affect student achievement (Great Expectations Organization).”
