Gloucester High School is a public school in suburban Ottawa, Ontario. The school has regularly fielded strong teams in Reach for the Top, winning the national title in 1998 and 2001. Gloucester ceased their quizbowl program with the removal of their gifted program.

Reach for the Top

Gloucester has had a team for several years, and the coach is the regional director. They had great success around the turn of the millennium, with two national titles (and a third national appearance in 1997), and have made a recent resurgence, qualifying for nationals in 2007 and 2010, the latter of which saw Gloucester win the Ontario Provincial championships.
