KIDS HEART CHALLENGE Update

We were within $50 of OUR goal of $6,000 for a big sliming and Coach Eller and Dr. Springer sleeping on the roof! Coach Eller will have the final update later on Monday and the results will be sent out via Skyward. Thank you to everyone for participating in the Kids Heart Challenge!

Happy Bottoms Update

We are in our final week of OUR diaper drive and we have collected over 1, 500 diapers to support Happy Bottoms. Remember that our goal is 2,000 diapers.


Please remember that a donation of $8 equates to 50 diapers given out to a family in need. If you would like to donate and are writing a check, please make it payable to Gray Hawk with a note on the memo line stating "diapers". Our last day to collect will be Friday, March 31.
