GCS student members of the Bill Koch League (BKL) Ski Club meet after school each week to practice their cross-country ski skills. On Friday, the club visited the Medawisla Trails and Lodge - nestled within the Appalachian Mountain Club's wilderness lodge network in the 100-mile Wilderness. Students in grades 2 through 6 enjoyed a day of cross-country skiing and camaraderie made possible through the collaborative efforts of GCS, NREC (Natural Resource Education Center), and AMC!
Our Middle Schoolers "Skied the View" on Big Moose Mountain last Thursday, got some fresh air, and spent quality time with their friends and teachers! Thank you Big Moose Mountain staff and volunteers for making this experience so AMAZING!!
Thank you to all the amazing fans who came out to support our teams and senior athletes! We had a great turn out and the girls once again pulled out a very exciting victory over a tough Jackman team! The boys started off a bit slow but picked up the intensity and closed the gap with a very good second half, unfortunately they fell short.
Our varsity teams close out their regular season with a game in Guilford on Wednesday 2/7 @5:00 pm. Make the short drive and come to cheer on our teams in their final game. Our girls currently sit in 4th place in the standings and our boys are currently in 9th and would travel for a preliminary game if things remained the same.
Tournament seedings and schedule will be updated when we receive the information.
Congratulations to Alayna McMahon on her 3rd place finish yesterday in Hermon! Alayna had the fastest run time overall out of 2 runs for each skier and her two run total put her in 3rd out of 25 racers.
Dustin Freethy-Poiss had the 4th fastest run time during his second run, unfortunately a missed gate during his first run cost him a shot at placing.
Great job to both skiers! Good luck today!
Another great win last night for our varsity girls basketball team against Guilford! They continue to climb the standings as we head towards tournament time!

Absolutely thrilled with our fantastic Fab 5 Spellers! This tight-knit group of 6th graders has been a source of support for one another throughout the preparation for our school bee. Their camaraderie doesn't end there; they continue to uplift each other with friendship beyond the competition and are all looking forward to making the trek down to Bowdoin College in March for the Scripps State Spelling Bee!!
Thank you, Mr. Shaw, the Big Moose Mountain staff, and all the GCS staff and parent volunteers who helped make our first middle school trip to the mountain in 2024 a SMILING SUCCESS.

Good luck today Lakers! Play hard and have fun as you try to bring a championship home!
