GSIS 2018 Yearbook: No Limits Volume 12 yearbook-reduced | Page 52

Fall

In a lot of people ’ s lives , fall has been lovely , the weather mild , and the color of the leaves changed beautifully . We always have the opportunity to be present for the pleasant moments . There is absolutely no limit for what we can do when such a delightful season arrives . It is our job to seize such a beautiful time of the year .
Volleyball players have extended their limits by persevering through a challenging yet fulfilling season by going through tough practices and overcoming big losses and also celebrating huge wins . Tennis players and cross-country runners pushed their individual limits as they endured arduous physical preparations for meets and literally ran with one another through injury .
Performers had numerous opportunities to shine on and off stage during the production of “ You ’ re A Good Man , Charlie Brown ”. Musicians auditioned to serve as a part of the Praise Team and received opportunities to perform during the elementary and secondary SEW .
During SEW all students shared in the joys and lessons Christianity brings . They pushed their limits growing in their faith . They also learned how incredibly powerful relationships with one another can be as they competed in relay races and collaborative activities in the community . The trash clean up with secondary and elementary students was a memorable activity which pushed the limits of GSIS outside of the four walls of the school .
Musicians also ignited their passion during the Fall Concert as Jazz Band took on a vibrant life of its own with new teacher Dusty Jackson playing alongside the band as audience members entered the auditorium .
Lower secondary Masterchef Junior fostered students ’ passion in culinary arts and allowed them to push their limits creatively as they tweaked their own recipes to make tasteful treats and entrées .
Wrapping up the numerous accomplishments that took place during fall , the Student Council Association hosted the Fall Pep Assembly . The assembly celebrated student athletes and their great successes , such as the boys tennis tournament win and the girls varsity volleyball tournament and conference win .
The fall season brought countless moments of joy and celebration , which made it truly worthwhile to ponder on . It indeed was a special part of the year with more special moments to arrive .
