GJHS wins 26th Knowledge Bowl title
GRAND JUNCTION, Colo. (KREX) — The Grand Junction High School (GJHS) academic team won state this year at the 2025 Knowledge Bowl State Championship, making it the school's 26th title win and their 22nd Governor's Cup. Co-coach Noah Schmidt said the team was tested in every high school subject matter. 'If it's covered in high school curriculum, it's covered through the games. Anything from math, science, literature, poetry. Any subsets of that… history, a lot of geography, geology. If it's covered in a high school class, there's a 99% chance that it's covered in the games itself.' The list of team members is listed below.

Peter Booth to receive Spotlight Award
GRAND JUNCTION, Colo. (KREX) – On Saturday, the D51 Foundation is hosting its 13th annual White Iced Celebration from 7 p.m. to 10:30 p.m. in the Meyer Ballroom at CMU. During the celebration, they will recognize Peter Booth, who is this year's Spotlight Award recipient. The Spotlight Award is given to an individual who has gone above and beyond to benefit School District 51 and the D51 Foundation. Booth will be awarded for his contributions to the GJHS Archival Project. The Archival Project was an effort to document, catalog, photograph and memorialize the countless trophies, banners and plaques stored in the old GJHS over the years with the transition to the new building. With a generous donation from Community Hospital for the four interactive touch screens at the new GJHS, Booth and his team were able to preserve the long history of GJHS.
