Grant News

One Book, Grant School
We ask that you follow the reading schedule at home each night for the next few weeks. Each day, students will get a chance to answer a trivia question from the night's reading and may win a prize.
We feel that this is a GREAT way to promote reading at home and provides a fun, family activity. And if you miss one day, no sweat! The sections are very short and you'll be caught up in no time!
With the weather getting colder....
We love to get the kids outside when we can. We will go outside for recess anytime it is above 10 degrees outside (including the wind chill). Please help your child remember that when getting ready for school in the mornings.
School Closing for Bad Weather
If we decide to call off school, you will receive a phone call from our automated service. You will also be able to hear/see the news on our local radio and television stations. We do our best to make an informed decision as early as possible.

Our Grant Creed
I am responsible.
I am safe.
I am prepared.
We are here to learn;
Therefore, I will do nothing to keep the teacher from teaching
and anyone, myself included, from learning.
I will cooperate with all school people.
I will respect myself, others, and the environment.
By acting in this way, I am capable, connecting and contributing!
I will have a great day!
