The basketball awards are tonight, at GRHS, at 7:00. Girls will meet in the media center and boys will meet in Mrs. Sanford's room. Should be a nice ending to what has been a fun season.

Ms. Willoby and Miss Siddens 2nd grade enrichment RTI students completed a research project on an animal of their choice. Students did their own research and drawings to create a book full of information and interesting facts about their animal!

Dental forms are due May 15th, for students in kindergarten, 2nd, 6th and 9th grade. Any exam 18 months prior to May 15th will be acceptable.


Today we honor Kathy Swick, our Golden Ruler recipient. Kathy is a dedicated teacher who has spent nearly her entire career in GRF. She subbed in the district for 10 years, including Frasier School, before teaching the next 17 years in kindergarten. As student needs have shifted over the years, Kathy has adapted to meet the needs of her students. She is willing to take on the challenges that come with change throughout her years in education. Mrs. Kathy Swick is beyond deserving of the Golden Ruler.
