May 16th - Over 59,000 views!  In honor of the completion of our 11th year we thought, from time to time, we would bring you some random historical perspective on our school titled:
 
AMAZING G-STAR FACTS:
 
I.              The G-Star School property belonged to Palm Beach County from the 1950’s up to 2004 when we bought the property from them.  In 1970 the Palm Beach County Water Utilities Department (WUD) moved onto the property.  The WUD has been responsible for the quality of Palm Beach County’s drinking water.  The WUD had 500 County employees on the property for over 30 years.  The amazing fact is that the WUD always had this property’s water service through the Village of Palm Springs Water Department.  Palm Springs Water Department has a modern reverse osmosis water system, which is the purest drinking water level there is.  This system produces an even higher quality drinking water than most bottled water.  When G-Star bought the property we inherited uninterrupted the reverse osmosis quality water in our drinking water.  For 11 years G-Star has had the purest drinking water to be found anywhere!
II.            The Pathfinder Awards are the top Palm Beach County student awards in various categories from all of the high schools.  The criteria is simply, “The Best of the Best”.  The amazing fact: G-Star students have won the Best Acting Award two out of the last three years!  Two of Palm Beach County’s finest actors have come from G-Star.  They are Nia Benjamin and this year’s Best Actor, Kyle Douglas!  The truth is that this is not an amazing story at all.  We have a tremendous acting department with Department Head Jill Carr and her teachers Mr. Edgecomb, Mr. Olsen, Ms. Gangalof, and Mr. Sherman - combined with our wonderfully talented students – you have a winning formula for success.  Congratulation to them all!
