Caroline Thompson, Head Coach
Caroline's passion for swimming started at the age of six in Lexington, Kentucky, where she spent nearly every day at her local pool in the summer. Following her first summer season, she began swimming year-round. Upon moving to Montgomery County at the age of 12, Caroline swam for Solotar Swim Team and RMSC, but the highlight of her year was swimming in the MCSL for Watkins Mill, excelling particularly in 50 and 100 freestyle. In her twenties, she assumed the role of head coach for three seasons at Stedwick Swim Team. Years later, spurred by her children's passion for competitive swimming, Caroline found herself drawn back to coaching, serving as head coach at Montgomery Square Copenhaver for four rewarding years. A proud mother of three and the devoted companion of Nora, a black Labrador who shares her love for swimming, Carolinespends her free time enjoying her family, learning the bass guitar, and training for marathon swims. She is thrilled to be the head coach for Gaithersburg High School where she is also an ELD teacher.
