A Little National Spotlight on Our GR Rebels! 
Sometimes, the best stories are the ones that others discover and want to tell!
Recently, a couple of young documentary filmmakers with a passion for football heard about the incredible 8-player football programs here in Iowa. As they explored teams and stories worth sharing, they found their way to Gladbrook-Reinbeck!
One thing I want to emphasize is that this was not something our district initiated, commissioned, or paid to have produced. These young filmmakers simply love the game of football and wanted to tell the stories of programs and communities where the game means so much.
And that's what makes this opportunity especially neat!
In small communities like ours, football is about more than Friday night scores and wins. It's about tradition, relationships, hard work, community pride, and generations of people who have helped build something special.
We are grateful that these filmmakers chose to spend time with our student-athletes, coaches, and program, providing an opportunity to share a little piece of what makes GR special with an audience beyond our communities.
Thank you to the filmmakers for recognizing that some pretty incredible stories come from small-town Iowa!
We hope you'll take some time to watch, share, and celebrate our Rebels!
