Senior School Updates — February 27, 2026



Inspirit AI Information Session On March 10


As part of our Saints Summer Series, St. George's School is partnering with Inspirit AI for an on-campus AI Project-Building Program this Summer 2026. 

We will be holding an Information Session via Zoom for families on Tuesday, March 10th at 7:00 pm PT. The session will be led by Ms.Maddie Bradshaw, an alum of Harvard & Stanford and Inspirit's Curriculum Director. Please sign up for the Information Session here.

This summer, students entering Grades 9–12 will learn the fundamental concepts of AI and gain a deeper understanding of how AI is used to build ChatGPT and generative AI, fight pandemics, power self-driving cars, and more. Students will learn to program AI in Python, discuss ethics and bias in AI, and complete a group project applying AI to disciplines such as healthcare, astronomy, and finance, among others. No prior computer science experience is required to participate.
