Gunsaulus Scholastic Academy

As we wrap up another incredible school year at Gunsaulus, we want to extend our deepest gratitude to our amazing students, dedicated educators, supportive families, and active volunteers. Your hard work, partnership, and commitment made this year truly special.

We could not be more proud of all that we accomplished together. From learning and growth to unforgettable moments and achievements, this community continues to inspire us every day.

Thank you for making Gunsaulus such a special place to learn, grow, and serve. We cannot wait to see all that we will accomplish together this coming school year!

Congratulations to our March Madness Attendance winners who claimed their prize today as they explored Navy Pier and had an incredible day! Room 203 (Walsh & Rodriguez) were the champions. Thanks for leading our school this year to the 20th best attendance in the entire district of over 500 elementary schools! Let’s keep it up!

🌟 A Special Thank You to Ms. Cirves!
None of this magic would be possible without our visionary Drama Teacher, Alexandra Cirves! Not only did she direct this beautiful show, but she also uniquely adapted it herself (with additional stage adaptations by David Simpatico & Alice Gerstenberg). Thank you, Ms. Cirves, for guiding our students, inspiring their creativity, and reminding us all that being a little bit "mad" is what makes life so special! 💖

Thank you to everyone at Gunsaulus who came out to support the arts! 🎪🎭

Cirves, por guiar a nuestros estudiantes, inspirar su creatividad y recordarnos a todos que estar un poco «locos» es lo que hace que la vida sea tan especial! 💖
