Textbook Return












School resources and text return takes place on Friday, June 11, from 8 a.m. to noon for students currently on virtual learning. Resources/texts will be returned to teacher classrooms or another designated location. A comprehensive list will be available at the bluestone lobby upon check-in. If a student cannot make it to campus on Friday, June 11, they should email their teachers to make alternative arrangements the following week. For clerical purposes, we strongly encourage drop-offs on June 11. All books or other materials must be returned no later than Friday, June 18. Students present on campus will return their books over the next few weeks through their normal class schedule.

Give a Timeless Gift to Your Grad!










The Governor’s School Foundation invites families of MLWGS seniors and graduates to purchase inscribed pavers to leave a lasting tribute at the school.

You can purchase either a bluestone paver inside the school lobby or a brick paver to be placed on the Lombardy Street walkway. All donated funds beyond the cost of the engraving are tax-deductible.

Orders must be received by July 1. The cost is:
* $500 for an exterior brick paver (up to 3 lines of text with 13 characters/spaces per line)
*$1,000 for a bluestone lobby paver (up to 3 lines of text with 13 characters/spaces per line)
