Change was in the air as we entered our second year as a middle school. Mr. Hunter took over as Principal and we grew to 12 full Advisory classes - 4 in each grade. We continued to build on the success of our first year developing a safe, positive culture of learning and began focussing in on our literacy and numeracy goals.

Our music program continued to be among the best in the province with bands popping up all over the place. Jazz bands and combos, concert bands and strings groups among others could be heard in our halls every day. A highlight of the year was the Touring Band's trip to Disneyland in May.

Our television studio - Studio 85 - was on the air every day this year bringing important news and notes (and the odd ODD performance) to the students.

As the year drew to an end we said good-bye to two longtime Glanford teachers who both made the transition from Glanford Elementary. Mr. Durrance (Retired) and Mrs. Macaulay (A new assignment) embodied the spirit of GMS and will be sorely missed.

Entering our third year we looked forward to more growth and to the return of our Principal, Mr. Scigliano, from sabbatical to take over the reigns of the BEST MIDDLE SCHOOL IN VICTORIA!
