ABOUT GDS
Our campus
GDS’s Connor Campus was intentionally built to be the kind of learning environment we believe ALL students deserve.
Location, location, location
The school’s 11-acre campus is located at the confluence of the Great Miami and Mad Rivers, just across the water from downtown Dayton. It is centrally located, easily accessible, safe and provides an inspiring vantage point for our students and their families.
Key features
GDS’s design and construction took about five years and included input from some of the country’s most innovative architects and educators. The five-story structure includes a health and wellness center, gym, fitness center, full-service kitchen and salad bar, unique extended learning areas, flexible clasroom spaces, labs and a state-of-the-art security system. The outside features include a turf field, basketbball courts, playgrounds and a running track.

Ultimately, we believe the people who learn and work at the school are the true difference-makers. They’re what really matters. Not the physical facility. That said, the campus, in some ways, is the physical manifestation of one of our core values and encourages our students to “dream big; work hard.”
