GMS has made my life
easier and that we have found
the perfect fit for our son.
She's back
to loving school, wanting to come to school.
She's back to thriving and learning
not feeling kind of singled out.
They have really
opened doors for him and I feel
now very confident that he will succeed.
You know her sparkles back
she's loving school again and that makes me happy.
Governor Morehead School serves in as a jewel
in the crown of Education in North Carolina.
During our illustrious 170
years we have grown and changed with the community and
continue to provide state of the art services for our students
Our goal is to support
their learning to give them whatever
they need to make sure that they are successful.
I think for the first time
we're really in a good position
to increase the number of employment
opportunities that are available for our students, but more importantly to
give them the skills that they need to go
into the workforce.
I feel like with Wesley being here
that now he does have a bright future
because this school has given him tools to succeed.
The people that serve
them allow no barriers to standing in the way.
The kids inspire me every day because
a lot of the kids say can't, but that really makes me happy
when they say I can after they performance a skill.
Whenever I'm stressed or confused about anything the teachers always there
to help when they just tell you never
give up you're trying to do everything.
I felt like there was something missing at
her public school. Class size
was so large she was getting lost in the crowd
and I don't really feel like she was getting
really what she deserve that at school.
I was a little scared to meet the new people
that I didn't know, but I was very excited to
meet the people that had the same conditions
I did.
Parents number one love the fact that their kids come here and
are with other students who
are like their own children.
And they go from being a child or student being
a really small fish in a really big pond,
where they kind of stand out and their different to a place where everybody else is just a like them
and it does wonders for their self-esteem for
their socialization skills and I think that's
something that parents really value.
We also offer services that
children don't necessarily get in their Public
Schools. So our children are allowed
to develop the skills that
are necessary. The leadership opportunities, they
are student council presidents
and vice presidents, they belong to
the Honor Society
Those areas of instruction are provided in this environment at more intensive
level than they can often get in their home communities.
My favorite
part of the school is gym and sports.
The people are
always nice and they always help you out.
Science.
why is that what? Science is fun.
What would you say that you love the most about the school?
To be honest everything
everything.
The thing I love most is just a sense of community.
That's what makes this place so special
is the team that we have
assembled over the years.
The faculty is very committed to children it's a very much a family atmosphere.
To us it's like one big happy family.
It just seems more like a
big family and that's nice.
