A Weekly Look at Grant Elementary School & the Grant PTA
Week of April 27, 2020
A Message From Principal Grey
Dear Grant Community,
From spending your time in classrooms, serving on PTA, growing our garden, fundraising, organizing our auction, driving on field trips, making copies, supporting the Holiday Shoppe, organizing book bags, supporting the school play, creating our yearbook, cutting, pasting and leading art lessons, you have given your all to our school and we are forever grateful.
Your commitment to student success and our community embodies our school's vision and not a day goes by that your contributions of time and energy aren't appreciated. We love you all and cannot wait to be together again on campus. For those of you who are promoting to junior high school after this year, we thank you from the bottom of our hearts for your years of dedication to our school community. We will miss you and your students every day and are so grateful for our years spent together.
With Gratitude,
Amanda Grey
Congratulations, Ms. Hill!
Congratualtions, Ms. Reed!
