Join Us in Celebrating the Inaugural Class of 2024
On June 7, 2024 Girls Global Academy will hold our graduation ceremony for our first ever graduating class! The Class of 2024 is such a special group to us. These girls started at a new school during an incredibly challenging time in 2020 during a global pandemic. Their ability to persevere, excel and now graduate is a testament to the power of our four pillars: sisterhood, scholarship, service, and safety.
In addition to facing adversity head on with virtual learning at the beginning of their high school career, our students completed over 3,300 service hours over the course of 4 years. We have student-athletes who are founding members of sports teams which include volleyball, track and field, cross country, basketball, softball, and cheerleading. We are so proud of the Class of 2024 and their accomplishments.
We invite you to help us celebrate our graduates!
GGA is launching a new campaign to help raise funds for the school that we love and to continue to invest in our students’ future. “The Class of 2024 Graduation” campaign will strengthen our programs and provide ongoing financial support to our school. By joining this campaign, you are ensuring that we can continue to fulfill our promise of Sisterhood, Scholarship, Service, and Safety to our current and future students.
When you make a contribution to Girls Global Academy, you’ll close the gender and racial STEM gaps by building pathways to entrepreneurship and careers in science, technology, engineering and math.
Will you join me in celebrating the Class of 2024?
Thank you so much for your generosity!
Together,
