Out of an abundance of caution, Gore Public Schools will implement a virtual instruction day tomorrow, January 23, 2026. Please reach out to the building principals with any questions or concerns. We will continue to monitor weather conditions over the weekend in preparation for potential additional weather days. Thank you for your patience and understanding as student safety remains our highest priority.

Biggest of shoutouts to Cain Cooper! Tonight, you joined one of the most exclusive clubs in high school basketball — the 1,000 Career Points Club! From freshman buckets to senior-game takeover moments, you've poured in work, heart, and clutch shots for four unforgettable years. Every layup, every mid-range jumper, every deep three, every trip to the free-throw line... it all added up to this incredible milestone. 1,000 points isn't just a number — it's proof of consistency, toughness, leadership, and love for the game. We see you. Your teammates see you. Your coaches see you. Your school sees you. And the whole community is proud of you!
