GSL Shores DHS ' Outrageous Pride and Spirit The Good Sportsmanship League was designated to promote good sportsmanship between opposing schools. Candidates for the Good Sportsmanship League must go through a rigorous evaluation of character, grades, leadership, and other qualities necessary to be selected for the club. Teachers choose these students knowing that they will represent the school. During the football season, certain club members greet other schools ' GsL members with gifts to ptomote a sense of good spirit and sportsmanship with the opposing schools. Many gifts were received this year from par- ticipating schools. Among these gifts were plants, flower arrangements, balloons, and books. These gifts repre- sent the desire for friendship and unity between schools in District 24-5A. The school has participated in this for several years now The GSL club president is senior Chris Jenkins. Chris is involved in many other activities, such as cross country and stu- dent council.
