Team Grant


NJHS asked if we could fundraise and participate in the Out of the Darkness Walk for Suicide Awareness and Prevention. This is how "Team Grant" was born. Our small but mighty crew raised $720. Our message....You are Not Alone.


Staff and student super hero of the week recognitions at Grant Middle School. We had a great day...The Grant Way!

Kindergarten students enjoyed playing some card games to reinforce the concept of greater and less than.
