For 127 years, our community school has stood as a beacon of learning on the Blue Hill Peninsula, weathering countless storms while nurturing generations of young minds. Founded in 1898, we have grown alongside our coastal town, our roots running as deep as the granite beneath our shores.
GSA is YOUR community’s school.
Introducing two new initiatives: GSA SOAR and the Town Contract Initiative.
GSA SOAR is a new community group whose mission is to champion students, support teachers, and foster school spirit by serving as a central hub for communication, involvement opportunities, and community-led support for GSA. Join SOAR by signing up here.
Learn more about the Town Contract Initiative and/or join the movement by visiting our dedicated page here or emailing us at community@georgestevens.org.
HOW WE RANK:
The GSA Class of 2025 earned $750,000 in scholarships, averaging $12,096 per graduate. Nationally, families who receive scholarships average $7,293—but only 1 in 8 students receives any scholarship at all.*
Nationally
While most rural schools struggle to send even one student annually to institutions like University of Chicago or Bowdoin, GSA consistently places students at top tier universities.
In Maine
GSA exceeds the college placement profiles of much larger Maine high schools, with the exception of a few elite private schools.
Among Schools Our Size
The combination of elite college placements, scholarship dollars, and pathway diversity is extraordinary.

THE GSA EXPERIENCE

"It's a really special community. I haven't found a community quite like GSA in other environments I've been in. Here, everyone's acknowledging one another. Everyone's always saying, 'Hi,' teachers included. That environment, that happy vibe or energy, lifts you up and elevates you as a person."

"Almost every class has something where you just leave, go walk around town, and do stuff. Teachers are really good at incorporating that kind of community into the school. The community will give to you, but you need to give back to them."

"I didn't know what steel pan was until I was a freshman- never heard of it, and I took that class freshman year. It was a lot of fun. I've never seen that in any other school. At GSA, we have a lot of classes other schools don't have. These classes- there're like niche classes- there's a lot of variety and support for them."

“We have access to so many different programs- The Skippers Program, HCTC, ISIP. I think no other schools have all of those programs where kids can explore what they want to explore instead of being stuffed into a box like in other schools.”
