Hello, and thank you for visiting the Galileo Academy website!

We’re so glad you’ve taken the time to visit our website and learn more about our amazing school community. At Galileo Academy, there’s always something exciting happening—innovative lessons, collaborative projects, and inspiring moments that are hard to capture in just a few words.
This is my 12th year serving as principal of Galileo Academy, and I am incredibly proud of the dedicated staff who work closely with our supportive families to create the best possible learning environment for our students.
What truly makes Galileo unique is our shared commitment to a mission shaped by our parents, staff, and students:
Teachers, students, and families work together to help every child reach their fullest potential through the use of GATE (Gifted and Talented Education) and 21st-century learning strategies.
All 28 of our classrooms integrate GATE strategies into daily instruction, ensuring that every student benefits from engaging, challenging, and thought-provoking learning experiences. Our teaching methods are designed to align with how the brain learns best—making lessons more meaningful, memorable, and impactful.
Galileo Academy takes strategies previously reserved only for identified GATE students and introduces them to all of our students regardless of ability levels. With these opportunities, and a lot of hard work from staff, students, and parents, we work to attain our mission statement. I am so proud to be the principal of this school and be a part of the amazing work being done here. At Galileo, we believe every child has unique gifts and talents. Together, we strive to unlock those strengths, inspire curiosity, and prepare our students for a bright future.
Sincerely,
Conor Devlin
Principal

Our Focus
All 28 of our classrooms at Galileo incorporate Gifted and Talented Education strategies into their daily learning. We are focused on maximizing each student’s potential and use these strategies to assist in meeting this goal. Our goal is to provide activities and instructional strategies designed to be compatible with how the brain processes information. We strive to challenge and improve the skills of all students while making sure to challenge our gifted and high-ability students. At Galileo, we are helping students become thinkers. Galileo staff take strategies previously reserved only for identified GATE students and introduces them to all of our students regardless of ability levels. Through differentiation, interdisciplinary thematic instruction, use of the Icons of Depth and Complexity, questioning strategies, creativity, research, and hands-on real life experiences our students have fun with learning while maximizing their potential.
