The first Student Council meeting of the year will be held this Thursday during AA in the cafeteria. This is open to any GHS student who wants to be a part of Student Council, even if you were not a member in the past. All are welcome.
I had the opportunity to watch the Taylor County Trail Dogs high school mountain bike team compete today at Big Bear Lake. Unfortunately, the two girls were not available to compete today, so I only watched the boys event. I was so impressed by the entire organization, our coaches and especially the students. Congratulations to each member of the team that completed the course today, and special shout out to Isaac Young who placed 2nd in his division. This is not a school sport, but a club sport in our community. It is funded by donations and students families. They are appreciative of all of the donations they've received from school and community organizations and alumni. The coaches have worked tirelessly to ensure that they have loaner bikes so any student that wants to participate has the opportunity. With the team growing like it has they are currently in need of another bike stand. If anyone is interested in making a donation to the organization please reach out to me, and I will get you in touch with the right people. I would be remiss if I did not recognize teacher Samuel Wilson for bringing this event to our community and working tirelessly to see it be successful. What an awesome sport. I am proud of you all - Mrs. Shumaker
Update from Coach Louzy...
The boys XC team placed 3rd overall today at Mineral Wells and won the AA division.
Also had two individual place holders.

Congratulations Bearcats!
