What a Wonderful Weekend!
What a special weekend celebrating our students, schools, and the incredible community that supports them!
Braves Bash brought our community together to help students start the school year ready for success. More than 500 children received new school supplies, and over 20 community vendors joined us to support our students and families. We are so grateful for everyone who gave their time, resources, and energy to make this event possible!
Dry Ridge Elementary Renovation Ribbon Cutting gave us another reason to celebrate! Community members gathered on a beautiful day to see the newly remodeled spaces and recognize the tremendous time, effort, and care that went into making an old school feel new again.
It was a great weekend for Grant County Schools, and we’re thankful for everyone who came out to celebrate and support our students and schools. We’re fortunate to be part of a community that continues to show up for our kids!
Thank you, Grant County, for showing up, giving back, and continuing to support our students and schools!
