For the past several years, Jeff at MeANS has welcomed us to bring our collected sap for boiling and has given students and staff a hands-on look at the maple sugaring process.
At GSLC, learning doesn’t stop at the classroom door. This year, students and staff have been getting out into the community and experiencing all that Maine has to offer. These outings give students the chance to build connections, try new activities, and enjoy time together.
The elementary students at GSLC have been learning to sew, and the results are beautiful! Under the guidance of Miss Irma, the students have been crafting handmade aromatherapy bags that are available for purchase this season.

📸 Throwback Thursday!
Every fall, our campus fills with familiar faces — alumni who haven't forgotten where they came from. At last year's Wel-Kum Bak celebration the Class of 1975 gathered for their 50th Reunion, sharing stories, laughter, and a whole lot of memories. ❤️
☘️ Happy St. Patrick's Day from all of us at Good Will-Hinckley!
Here's to the little moments of green—in the garden, on the trails, and in the growth we see in our students every day. 🌿
