GEF’s FY26 Impact Report, “Let Sparks Fly!”, is here!

Jun 9

The Gloucester Education Foundation (GEF) is thrilled to share our FY2026 Impact Report with the community! It celebrates 20 years of GEF, from the early days to today, with a focus on what your support made possible this year, including:

  • launching the GHS Medical Assisting program and O’Maley Courtyard project;
  • piloting a Drone Operator Course and LEGO science kits; and
  • sustaining beloved programs like band, theater, and O’Maley Academy.

We’re especially impressed with that incredible cover photo by GHS sophomore Shane Widtfeldt, taken in the GHS Auto Shop. Literal sparks were flying as fellow sophomore Sam Watts did some welding!

We hope you enjoy the report, and that it inspires you to support our Spring Appeal. Every gift will help fund programs in Gloucester Schools next fall: programs educators dream up, students adore, and families count on.

Thank you!
