Hey there, Grant Grizzlies! 🌟 We’re excited to share our calendar of events for November with you. It may be a short month, but we’ve packed it full of fun activities!
Join us for our Mno Grant School Fundraiser on Friday, November 7th, at Barnes & Noble and Red Robin in Brentwood! Both events will be held on the same day, making it a great opportunity to support our school while enjoying some shopping and delicious food. A portion of the proceeds will go toward funding our library and school programs. Be sure to mention that you’re there for the Mno Grant fundraiser so our school receives credit for your purchase. Thank you for helping us make a difference for our students!
Save the date. If your child missed taking pictures on the first picture day, they can take photos on our picture makeup day. That day is Friday, November 7th.
Our Halloween parade will take place on Friday, October 31st, at 9:00 am on the school playground. Please note that this will also be a minimum day. We ask that Halloween costumes not include blood, gore, or weapons. Masks should only be worn during the parade. Kindly ensure your child comes dressed in their costume, as we will not be able to call them out of class to change once the school day has started.
Attention, Late TK Parents: You are invited to participate in the parade. All TK Students will attend the Early TK session on October 31st, 8:15 AM-10:30 AM.
