As the school year begins to wind down, we want to take a moment to sincerely thank the many businesses and organizations that generously donated to support our monthly homeroom celebrations for Gilmer County 6th–8th grade students.
Each month, 6th-8th grade homerooms competed for the highest attendance rate, and those winning groups were rewarded with a special treat. It would not have been possible without your kindness and support. Your contributions helped us celebrate student commitment and made attendance something exciting and meaningful.
We truly appreciate your encouragement of our students and your investment in their success.
To our parents and families: thank you for the role you play each day. Please keep up the great work encouraging and ensuring your children get to school this last month of school. Your support makes a lasting difference!
Together, we are building strong habits and celebrating success. 💙

The GCHS Concert Band and Middle School Band both traveled to Williamstown High School for the WVSSAC Region II Ratings Festival on April 16, 2026 🎶
The GCHS Concert Band earned a rating of II (Excellent). An Excellent Rating means only minor improvements are needed—an impressive achievement!
The Middle School band was switched to “Comments Only,” but judges and the Festival Director shared they would have earned a II (Excellent Rating).
"I am unbelievably proud of both bands," said Mrs. Buckley. "They’ve worked really hard to bring this music to life and to perform well. It’s reassuring to see how far the bands have come since 2022, and I know that we’re setting a trend for excellent and growth. I can’t wait to see what comes next!”
Join us for their Spring Concert on Thursday, May 7 at 6:00 in the GCHS Gym 🎺

Mrs. Emerson’s 6th Grade Wellness (Physical Education) class had an egg-cellent time with a fun egg toss competition! Students teamed up to see how far they could toss their flour-filled egg without it cracking, building teamwork, coordination, and plenty of laughs along the way. Great job to everyone who participated! 🥚
