Welcome and Willkommen!

GSM is the first bilingual English-German school in the borough of Manhattan and will grow one grade per year into a full K-5 program. The Tribeca location is well situated, surrounded by parks and playgrounds and easily accessible by the Chambers Street station (A,C, 2, 3) and City Hall station (R and W). GSM is currently enrolling grades K-3. Students without prior knowledge of German language are encouraged to apply.

We are getting excited for a new school year to begin on September 8th. Due to the ongoing pandemic, we have reduced our opening hours and GSM students will learn in their designated grade pods. Field trips and other extra curricular activities will be offered remotely only. Parents are staying updated through Edsby, the school's communication platform that can be accessed in the parent section of this website.
