The Gordon School

Stand up for Gordon

Over 50% of the people who choose Gordon first heard about the school from a friend.

We can all help shape the future of Gordon—and the world—by spreading the word about this amazing school. 
 
Know a family who might be a good fit? Gordon accepts applicants for Nursery (must be three by the first day of school) through eighth grade.

Thank you for being ready to advocate for Gordon!

Current priorities include promoting two upcoming events:

  • Early Childhood Open House on Saturday, November 4th, for families exploring Nursery, Preschool, Young Kindergarten and Kindergarten (with children three to six years old)
  • Spend the Morning in Middle School on Monday, November 13th, for families exploring fifth through eighth grade. This event includes separate experiences for both students and caregivers. 

Keep reading to learn how you can spread the word about these events.

Spread the word about the Middle School events on Monday, November 13th

Rhode Island public schools are closed on Monday, November 13th in honor of Veterans Day. (Gordon is observing the holiday on Friday, November 10th.) With Gordon open that Monday and public schools closed, it's a perfect opportunity for students exploring fifth through eighth to experience Gordon's Middle School firsthand. Students currently attending any school are invited, and there is an info session for caregivers that morning that adults may attend whether or not they have a child at the student event.
