A Note From the Office
After our first week back in 2018, I just wanted to thank our entire community for their support. There are just a few short reminders from the Grove office this week.
Winter Clothing Reminder
Please make sure that your child comes to school every day dressed to be outside. We go outside all year long and they need to be prepared to be outside in the morning before school and at recess time, especially on cold days. We had a lot of students who were not prepared with gloves, hats, and scarves this week and while we try to provide items for students who forget or lose something, whenever we can it is always better for them to have their own winter gear so they can go directly outside and they know it will fit them!!
No School Monday, January 15th
We will be closed on Monday in observance of Martin Luther King Day.
