A Data Security Incident

On July 31, 2020, Director of Advancement Rada Starkey sent a letter by email and post to everyone on our mailing lists to inform them of a data security incident at Blackbaud that may have involved some of their personal information, but not encrypted information, such as credit card information, social security numbers, bank account details, or passwords, which GSA never retains. Click here to read that letter.

OUR MISSION

George Stevens Academy is a town academy on the coast of Maine. Founded in 1852, we are the high school for nearly all students from the seven towns in our rural community. We also enroll private-pay day and boarding students from around the world. Our students’ interests, talents, and aspirations reflect the diversity of the communities from which they come. 
     GSA provides a comprehensive and challenging education for all students, for those who will build futures in surrounding communities and for those who will make lives elsewhere in the world. Our many academic and experiential programs foster a love of knowledge, inspire creativity, instill self-confidence, encourage good character, and prepare each graduate for a purposeful life in a changing world. (Approved by the Board of Trustees on April 25, 2019)

     We share our vision here.
