What's Happening At Gratz Brown This Month??
It is time for our Wellness Warriors to get moving! The weather is turning warmer and we need to get our running shoes on!
Students participating in the Spartans on the Move program will need to be dropped off by 7:45 a.m.. If students arrive after 7:50, the doors will be locked and the students will need to be in the drop offline as there will be no supervision until 8;05 when the doors open for school.
This program is in conjunction with our Wellness and Fitness Grant at GBE.
