Community

GISNY is more than a school. It’s a supportive community for your entire family.

When your child enrolls at GISNY, your entire family becomes part of our welcoming community, coming together to create lifelong memories at breakfasts, art fairs, flea markets, sports days, field trips, class parties, career days, holiday celebrations, and so much more. 

This vibrant, engaged, and diverse school community is made possible by our strong tradition of family and alumni involvement. We invite you to explore the many ways to volunteer and stay connected!

GISNY will become your safe, inclusive home base as you connect with families who come from over 20 different countries and cultures and speak more than 18 native languages at home.

Join the Board

We invite our community to offer their unique talents, professional insights, and expertise to our Board of Trustees. While many of our trustees are parents within the school, we also welcome the invaluable perspectives and skills of non-parents, including alumni.
