For Current Families
A simple guide to staying connected with Gould.
Gould is your student’s school—but it’s yours, too. This page is the jumping-off point for staying connected, getting support, and finding what you need. For anything more detailed, head to MyGould, our parent portal.
Sunday River Pass Information
Gould students are eligible for discounted Sunday River season passes when purchased before a designated deadline in the fall. All students participating in competitive or recreational winter mountain activities are required to have a season pass.
For new or first-time pass holders, parents must submit a signed waiver and a headshot photo to Sunday River. Once processed, a new RFID pass will be printed and delivered to the student’s on-campus mailbox.
Returning students who have previously been issued an RFID card will have their pass automatically renewed and uploaded to the same card—no additional action is needed unless a replacement is required.
Be Part of the Community
The Gould Parents Association (GPA) connects families to campus life and offers meaningful ways to support the school throughout the year. Whether you’re near or far, there are opportunities to get involved—help host events, support fundraising efforts, show appreciation for faculty, or connect with other families. All parents are members, and every contribution makes a difference.
