On May 24, representatives from Garden City Middle School attended a recognition ceremony at NYU in Manhattan. At the ceremony, the Anti-Defamation League (ADL) presented the middle school with a No Place for Hate Gold Star banner, in recognition of their efforts to reduce bullying and bias in the school.

The ADL describes No Place for Hate as a program designed to create inclusive school communities by promoting unity and respect, and empowering schools to reduce bullying, name-calling and other expressions of bias.

Throughout the school year, the middle school conducted four events that involved students from grades 6-8. This year the events were: Unity Day, #No One Eats Alone, GC Cares, and the ABC EXPO. Students played a vital and prominent role in the initiative.
