Principal - Keisha Matthews-Traynham
As your principal, my vision for GHEMS is to provide students with an educational experience that inspires and motivates them to be lifelong learners and caring contributors to the world around them. Our goal is to provide a phenomenal, nurturing environment that meets the individual needs of each student.
I am excited to work with GHEMS families, teachers, support staff, community members, and administration to help provide an excellent, safe educational experience for our students. By working together in a cooperative spirit, we expect to achieve wonderful things for our students this school year.
“The function of education is to teach one to think intensively and to think critically. Intelligence plus character – that is the goal of true education.”
