Christmas
Falling toward the end of the first semester, GLSW holds a huge school-wide celebration for all students and families to participate or watch. Younger students sing songs and older youth perform skits on the SJA stage in a school-wide show. The Galli Theater Company (based in NYC) often performs a short play (completely in German) for the second half of the show, which is always a huge hit. GLSW families bring traditional foods and treats typically found at Christmas-time, such as Plätzchen and Stollen to share.
