GHS Athletics

Gorham High School, Home of the Rams!

Sports have been a part of Gorham High School for decades.

Originally, girls' sports were not on the same level as boys' sports, in regards to interscholastic and state play, until the early 1970s after the Title IX Act prohibited discrimination in schools on the basis of sex and other protected conditions.

The only discontinued sport is boys' volleyball.
