Originally from Trinidad and Tobago, Facilities Service Manager Wendy Peters has been on the Facilities team at Gaynor for 16 years, and has seen the school go through all kinds of changes, both architecturally and culturally. We sat down with Wendy for the latest installment of our “Five Questions With…” series, and learned more about her history with the school from the perspective of a staff member, and how deep her love of Gaynor is.
During the Summer Institute, Gaynor held a celebration to honor faculty and staff members who reached key milestones in their years of service. Continuing the newly established tradition from the previous year, milestones were divided into “clusters” to mimic the educational journey of Gaynor students.
Stephen Gaynor School is hosting an Open House for Professionals in Education. During the visit, participants will have a chance to hear about our individualized curriculum, view classes in session, and meet our students and faculty. Refreshments will be served.
At Gaynor, drama is a key element of the curriculum. Drama class begins in the Lower School, where students learn the fundamentals of acting and how those skills can be applied both onstage and in real life.
At Stephen Gaynor School, students with learning differences develop essential academic and critical thinking skills through individualized and evidence-based approaches, empowering them to reach their full potential. Students learn to advocate for themselves and others while actively building an inclusive community, a sense of belonging, and a belief in their own possibilities.
