“As an all-girls school alumna (Agnes Irwin School), Megan experienced the transformative power of a school where from day one as a new student she felt she belonged,” shared Dr. Becca Stimson, Chair of the GPS Board of Trustees. Cover will confidently step into the leadership role as the GPS Head of School with a desire for each GPS girl to know she belongs there.
