As a graduate from this school. I would overall say that GAMP is a very advanced and effective academy. Not only do the teachers encourage students to work harder but try to engage them in vary activities. The only bad part of the school is the school maintenance. Every day the stairs were always full of dust or trash.

Though the school is small I love how easy it is to build connections with teachers and staff. Every teacher remembers everyone's names and it's small but makes a huge impact on the students.

I loved my experience at Girard Academic Music Program. I attended GAMP since the 5th grade and am now a senior. I have always felt cared for at GAMP because it is such a small school. Some people dislike how small it is but for me, it makes me feel cared for and attached to the whole community and staff. Though a public school cannot offer everything, GAMP offers a lot. The opportunity at GAMP is phenomenal. You will never leave without saying you didn't get the chance.

To sum it all up, the school is AWESOME; Ms. Domb is TERRIBLE. Nuff said.

GAMP has been a second family to me and my children for the past several years. The teachers and staff dedicate countless hours, week after week, to ensure that their pupils are receiving a valuable education and a respect for society. This is a school that CARES about the future generation(s) of ou...
