Our middle school had kicked off fall break with an energetic Teachers vs. First Responders volleyball showdown! 🔥🏐 GK staff came ready to play and swept all three sets — but the real win was our students’ generosity. Together, GKMS and the Middle School Impact Club collected groceries for the Genoa Food Hub, making a big impact before the holiday season.

Great game, great energy, great cause! 💙💛
