Cross Country tryouts are coming up! 👟 Coach Weller is holding an info meeting for ANY student to attend on Tuesday, May 7th during RTI. This is a chance for your child to ask allll the questions. Coach Weller is patient and understanding that all students come from a variety of backgrounds, whether it is an athletic background or not. There's no such thing as "too slow" or "not good enough" - only a starting point to learn, grow, and be a part of diverse teammates who cheer you on no matter what.
Tryouts will be on Saturday, May 11th at 7 am at the GHS Track. Please make sure your child is wearing a shoe they can run in, has sunscreen on, and has plenty of water to hydrate with!



👟 Another camp opportunity for 1st - 6th graders - TRACK CAMP ‼ Details below.

TESTING IS TOMORROW ‼ Parents, please take note of the testing days coming up. We HIGHLY ENCOURAGE no student to miss ANY school these specific days. Please check your schedules and shuffle any doctor, dentist, or other appointments that might conflict with these testing dates. We thank you for understanding and working alongside us so that each student succeeds! 🧡

Great things are happening here at GMS! Just like our wrestling club, our cross-country club has grown tremendously! Our middle school XC athletes will now have an athletic period built into their schedule 👏👏👏
