Hat Day
Students recently put their skills to the test in PE playing cornhole. We had two days of practice followed by two days of tournament play. A handful of students earned bragging rights, as a pair of champions were crowned in each class!

I would also like to extend a BIG thank you to all the families who were gracious enough and lent us boards to use. Because of you, our students may have learned a new game or sharpened up on their prior skills in cornhole. I really appreciate your efforts in supporting our continued fun in PE :)

**Not all champions are pictured as some were gone**

Thank you,

Ms. Dolder

It’s been an action-packed week here at the middle school, but moments like this remind us how lucky we are to have such wonderful community support

A HUGE shoutout to Deals Orchard for the amazing donuts (Mr. Gorman definitely approved 🍩👌) and to Pam Betts for the delicious cookies—which disappeared so fast they missed the photo op! 🍪💨

🌳 Teamwork, challenges, and connections at YCamp!

Last week, GCMS 7th graders took their learning beyond the classroom during our trip to YCamp! Students had opportunities to practice communication, leadership, and teamwork—listening to others, taking turns, encouraging classmates, and working with peers beyond their usual friend groups.

The day’s challenges gave students a chance to persevere, build confidence, and see how their choices contribute to a team. These are skills we’ll continue building in the classroom and throughout our school community!

A big THANK YOU to BOOST, our middle school staff, and parents for supporting this experience. Your support helps make meaningful opportunities like this possible for our students! 💚
