A Tribute to
Ms. Gerri Barreras
As a tribute to Ms. Gerri and her legacy at Gulliver, we look forward to naming a space in her honor in the new Arts Center. We invite you to join us in these efforts by making a gift in her memory.
Providing Opportunities for Future Generations
Your participation not only honors Ms. Gerri, but helps to ensure similar, and likely even better, opportunities for future generations of dancers and performing artists. Together, we can ensure that Ms. Gerri’s remarkable impact on Gulliver and its students will be felt for years to come.
Instilling a Love for the Arts
Ms. Gerri embodied what it means to be a Gulliver Raider and her loss is felt within our entire community. She was a force, as well as the leader of our Dance Program, and also of the larger Performing Arts Program. She fostered the growth of her students, while instilling in them a love for not only dance but all of the arts.
A Transformational Leader
Ms. Gerri led many Sundancers teams to local, state, and national competitions, provided her dancers with opportunities to learn from industry leaders, and mentored them as students and later as alumni. Her passion similarly shaped her vision as the Performing Arts Department Chair. She was excited about the announcement of our new Arts Center, a building that, in her words, will allow us to foster and build a deeper sense of collaboration amongst our performing arts students.
