Our project-based curriculum encourages creative problem-solving, collaborative teamwork, and independent thought. GMS educates girls* during a pivotal time in their lives. Students develop self-knowledge, confidence, and leadership skills supported by a staff highly attuned to their changing emotional and social needs. GMS encourages girls to find their voices, take risks, and become self-reliant. Learn more about GMS: and

*At GMS, “girls” refers to cis girls, trans girls, non-binary youth, gender non-conforming youth, gender queer youth, and any girl-identified youth.

Mission

· Design learning experiences that balance skill-building with open-ended exploration and creative risk-taking

· Nurture a supportive community where students build confidence, collaborate, and develop teamwork through ensemble and shared music-making

· Support students in developing curiosity and their individual musical voice

· Foster a classroom culture where students listen, contribute, and grow together with respect and care

· Establish clear routines and expectations that support focus, respect, and productive music-making

· Guide students in caring for shared instruments and materials, and maintaining a thoughtful learning environment

What We Look for in a Music Faculty Candidate

· Experience teaching music or a related field, with confidence in leading a classroom independently

· Comfort with a range of musical approaches (vocal, instrumental, rhythm, and/or digital music tools)

· Commitment to experiential, project-based learning and progressive pedagogy

· Demonstrated focus on supporting girls in discovering their strengths and finding their voice

· Ability to positively engage students and collaborate closely with fellow educators

· Ability to be a self-starter who is organized, adaptable, and proactive in a dynamic classroom environment
