The Gould Family

“People are kind here, and thinking back, the Gould community has fostered my appreciation towards my school, my life, and the people around me.”
- Sean Xie ’17 (Valedictorian, Class of 2017) | Bowdoin College ’21
“I knew that if I wanted to make moves for my skiing and for academics that Gould would be the right place. Gould was the perfect balance between academics and training.”
- Sadie James ’13 | Bates College ’17
“[Gould] is moving in new and innovative directions; the IDEAS Center and the design thinking curriculum are an amazing asset for the school.”
- Lori Sherer, P ’16
