Great news! The power is back on, and we are proceeding with the rest of the day as normal!

No electricity - no problem! A big thank-you to our teachers and staff for thinking on their feet, improvising activities, and keeping our students engaged despite the unexpected challenges. Our students did a great job staying calm and making the best of the situation, too!

Hopefully, this unexpected start to the day turns into a memorable experience and a great story to tell.

Varsity soccer traveled to Sedalia Monday to take on Smith Cotton's JV team. GR got on the board first when Jack Hoos took a pass from Max Tylar and beat the defense before putting the ball past the keeper just about 7 minutes into the contest. SC managed to knot the score at 1 just before halftime. The second half found opportunities for both teams, but each promising attack ended without goal. After 80 minutes plus 2-10 minute OT periods the game went to PK's. SC came out on top 2-1 by converting all 5 of their shots. Reid Hagedorn, Tylar, and Hoos each made PK's. The Tigers are back in action at home on Thursday vs. Boonville after JH plays at 5.

Our seniors “popped in” for dirty sodas and popcorn while taking important steps toward their future! Students applied to colleges, completed their portion of the FAFSA, and got started on the scholarship process. We’re so proud of them for making progress toward their postsecondary goals.

HS Soccer opened play in the Kaysinger tournament Monday night at SFCC vs. the LaMonte Vikings. The Tigers got on the board first when Jack Hoos sent a cross to Jaden Xiloj who settled the ball and buried it in the back of the net just over 8 minutes into the game. Play was back and forth for much of the first half. With just over 10 minutes left the Vikings got on the board to bring the score even at 1-1 which held up until halftime. The second half was again back and forth until just inside the 20 minute mark when Jordan Dixon found Hoos in the box with a pass who was able to beat the keeper and give the Tigers the lead back. Just under 5 minutes later Hoos took a ball from Ayden Patterson who had beat the defenders and once again found the net. The Tigers weren't done yet, with a little over 11 minutes remaining Dixon found Max Tylar making a run into the box and hit him with the pass. Tylar was fouled just as he was about to put the shot on and was awarded a penalty kick which he buried in the back of the net to give the Tigers the 4-1 lead. The Vikings were undeterred and managed 2 more goals in the closing minutes, but were unable to get bring it all the way back to a tie. With the win, GR advances to play the #1 seed Stover tonight at 5 again at SFCC. Come out and root on your Tigers as they try to reach the championship game!

HS soccer got another win on Tuesday night at Eugene. The Tigers took the lead late in the first half on a penalty kick by Jack Hoos after a handball in the box. Late in the second half Alex Diaz split a group of defenders with a well placed shot just inside the post to give the Tigers a two goal lead on an assist from Jaden Xiloj. Max Knoernschild recorded his first varsity shutout in goal. Come out to SFCC and cheer on the Tigers on Monday at 5 when they open play in the Kaysinger tournament vs LaMonte
