Elementary Student of the Month: Kaleb Drissel
Granville Academy 3rd grader, Kaleb Drissel is this month's GA Elementary Student of the Month! Kaleb always completes his work on time and many times early! He has a set schedule throughout his "school" day which helps make him successful.
Mrs. Bickel stated, "His One Word for 2020 is HAPPY which describes him perfectly!"
Middle School Student of the Month: Jayden Waters
This month, 6th grader Jayden Waters is the GA Middle School Student of the Month!
Mrs. Young states:
"Jayden has consistently worked hard in all classes this school year. He completes assignments in a timely manner, is respectful to his teachers and peers, and is a good sport during PE. He also participates in Science Olympiad after school. He is a joy to be around."

Granville Academy K-5 & 6-8 Family Support/Outreach Groups
K-5 & 6-8 Granville Academy families:
There are two Facebook groups that are set up for GA Pirates and families in grades K-5 & 6-8 (as parents and students) to come together and get to know each other better. The idea behind the pages is to have somewhere to go for support (help with assignments that may be confusing) or to plan a fun outing with the group ("Hey, anyone want to go to the park and have lunch this Friday?").
Please note the pages are set up to protect the privacy of students & families. Only GA Pirates are allowed to join. Please search for the groups on Facebook!
We are looking forward to getting to know our GA Pirates!
