George McGovern Middle School -

The 8th grade girls involved in Power Lunch celebrated their final luncheon at Canopy in downtown Sioux Falls this week!

We are so proud of these future leaders! 💜

Eagle Flight School is a great opportunity for our future GMMS 6th-grade students to learn all about middle school and meet their teachers and classmates. Sign your student up today! https://forms.gle/PWkfAiTVDRVMkCEw9
