The GCMS community has experienced an unthinkable loss with the passing of junior Colin Bane. Colin was in a tragic car accident on Wednesday, May 18th. Colin is the son of Melissa and Brian Bane of rural Ford County, and brother to Clayton (GCMS Class of 2018) and younger brother to Cale class of 2025. The entire GCMS community is mourning the loss of one of our kids. Please keep the Bane family, our students, staff, and community in your thoughts during these trying times.
