The Tigers are headed back to STATE after defeating Canadian 38-17 in the State Semi-Final Championship game tonight! Congratulations to the team, we are excited to see you back on Jerry's field next Thursday. Details will be posted next week.
Tomorrow is the State Semi-Final Football Championship, and we couldn't be more excited! With the district releasing students early (12:00 Noon) and the send-off happening at 11:30 AM, we are asking for your cooperation to make the events run smoothly.
- We have chartered buses arriving to pick up our students and they will need a clear path in the north parking lot from 289 to the field house. With that in mind, we must ask that parents NOT park in the north parking lot of the high school to pick up students. If you are coming for the send off, please park in the front student parking lot and walk over to the north lot to cheer or line 289 to cheer them on as they go down the road.
- The stadium will open the gates at 4:00 PM which will give you plenty of time to get into the game, grab a bite to eat at the concessions and get situated and ready to cheer on the Tigers.
Safe Travels!

This Week in Sports - Week of December 4th
Congratulations TIGER FOOTBALL! The State Semi-Final Championship game is on December 8th | 6 PM at ACU - Anthony Field | Wildcat Stadium. We hope to see you there! Find all the game info right here: https://www.gunterisd.org/page/gisd-athletics-home-new2023
There are two very important changes listed in this post regarding December 8th and December 20th. Please be sure to read both.
First off, a big congratulations to our Tiger Football Team on their Regional Championship!
Our next game will be played on Friday, December 8th at Abilene Christian University beginning at 6:00 PM. In order to give teachers, parents, staff members, bus drivers, etc ample time to make the trip and support our players and coaches, we will have a noon dismissal that day. We apologize in advance for any inconvenience this may cause you or your family. These decisions take into account a staffing shortage and an extremely low attendance rate due to parents/teachers/families leaving early enough to support their kids.
Also, Wednesday, December 20th will be changed to a noon dismissal as well due to a major electrical shutdown at the High School and Middle School for construction purposes. This additional time is crucial for the electricians and our technology department to complete this project before the end of the Christmas break. Again, we apologize for any inconvenience this may cause. However, it is critical that this project be completed before school begins again on January 9th.
Thank you for your understanding and support.
It’s a great day to be a Tiger!

Important message from the Transportation Department: One of our route buses was delayed this afternoon due to a belt breaking. We promptly had another bus dispatched and delivered all students home safely. That bus is still on the side of the road, but please know that everyone who was on the bus is safe at home. Instead of paying a tow truck, we have opted to replace the belt onsite, and that will be done tomorrow. Thank you for your patience this afternoon.
