Dear Gould families,

 

The second semester is in full swing, and we are looking forward to the Winter Carnival, Snow Ball, snow sports competitions, and March Four Point adventures. Before you know it, it will be spring, and we will be planning end-of-year celebrations. Students will be wrapping up another unforgettable year at Gould and making plans to depart the mountains of Maine for home. 

 

Please take a moment to review our end-of-year schedule and campus departure dates and procedures. 

 

Each Gould boarding student and their family is encouraged to work with their advisor to develop an end-of-year departure plan. If you have any questions, please contact our Travel Coordinator, Abbey Quinn. 

 

At Gould, we have many end-of-year traditions that are both rites of passage and a way for faculty and students to celebrate their time together as it draws to a close. We hope to share many of these celebrations and events with Gould's parents. Please review this list of events that are available for Gould's parents and many are also available on Gould's YouTube page if you are not able to be here in person.

 

Warmly,

Dr. Clarke, Assistant Head of School 

At Gould, what makes you unique is what brings us all together.

Today, the Gould community came together to honor the legacy of Martin Luther King, Jr. with a day of reflection and learning. A highlight of the day was an assembly led by DEIB Coordinator and Academic Skills teacher Julia Tatsch and Director of Admissions Elisa Lellios, who spoke about the legacy of Martin Luther King, Jr. and the possibilities of his dream. They invited the community to reflect on how the actions of those who came before us influence our lives today and how we, in turn, can shape a more just and equitable future here at Gould and beyond.

Gould Academy students Richard Chen ’26 and Bruce Qiu ’27 have achieved a significant milestone in high school mathematics by qualifying for the American Invitational Mathematics Examination (AIME). This places them among the top high school math students in the country and reflects their dedication to learning beyond the classroom.

The path to qualifying for the AIME begins with the American Mathematics Competition (AMC), a highly challenging test designed for advanced math students. Achieving a top score on the AMC and qualifying for the AIME is rare. Ajay Zutshi, their math teacher and advisor, likened the accomplishment to scoring a perfect 1600 on the SAT in terms of its rarity and prestige.
