Enrollment in GEMS is limited to 272 girls.

Any fifth-grade girl who resides in the West Hawaii School Complex Area is welcome, whether she attends public, private, or home school.

Scholarships are available, and no girl will be turned away based on her family's inability to pay the $20 registration fee.

Registration for GEMS is on a first-come, first-served basis.



AAUW advances equity for women and girls through advocacy, education, and research.
