Preschool Positive Peer Model Applications
For our youngest GMSD students, preschool's positive peer model applications are NOW OPEN for the 2024-2025 school year. These applications will provide the preschool team with information needed to schedule a screening appointment in February, but it does not guarantee acceptance into the program. To be eligible, the student must be 4 years of age by August 15, 2024 and reside in Germantown OR be the child of a GMSD employee and be 3 years of age by August 15, 2024.

School Snapshots
All of our GMSD schools are hard at work preparing for their upcoming Snapshots event. School Snapshots is a chance for prospective teachers to visit our GMSD schools to meet administrators/teachers and explore the resources our schools have available for teaching. It’s a great opportunity for applicants to get a feel for the different schools’ cultures, which will help them in determining whether or not they want to apply for a teaching position in GMSD. The dates of GMSD's Snapshots event are listed below! Click here to register and learn more.
