GOUVERNEUR – The Gouverneur Middle School has launched the Positivity Project, an initiative designed to promote character strengths and foster a positive school culture. Recently, the entire Gouverneur Middle School united in an extraordinary drone photo shoot, capturing an aerial view of the symbolic P2 shield.
