About

Everyone knows that once your name has been announced on your first Green & White Day from the steps of Everdell Hall, that is your team for life. The earliest date on the Gunston School Team trophy is 1964. That's 56 years of fierce (but friendly) competition filled with canoe races, capture the flag, relay races, tug-of-war, ultimate frisbee, soccer, kickball, (horseback riding for our boarding school alumnae), academic challenges in every subject, pie-eating contests, and even a chopstick contest.

For this Green & White Giving Challenge, we are asking you to donate in honor of your team. The team with the highest participation points will start the year out with 100 points.

ONE DONATION = ONE POINT, regardless of the amount

All donations go directly to Gunston's Financial Aid Program, which will provide much-needed assistance to current and incoming students during this time of growing economic uncertainty.

Together, we can make a difference. Go Green! Go White! Go Gunston!
