Grijalva Family and Friends
May is here and has arrived so quickly it seems. It has been a pleasure to get to know you and your families. It has been a great year, with so much learning and growth from all the students! Everyone has worked hard and we are so appreciative of your support. Thank you to our staff for their dedication, their communication with families and their caring spirits.
Our state testing is accomplished and I am honored to have seen scholars working hard and determined to show what they know on each test. We will offer Summer School and encourage all of our scholars to participate!
Have a safe and restful summertime and we look forward to seeing you August 4th!
Morning Schedule
The first bell rings at 7:40 and our teachers take attendance precisely at 7:45. Students arriving after 7:45 should check in with the office staff before going to class. For the safety of your child, please do not arrive prior to 7:20, the cafeteria breakfast and our playground do not have student supervision prior to 7:20.
Registration
If you haven't already registered for next school year, please do so right away. Our registered number of students determines our staffing for next school year, so it's very important that you register right away. Plus, it ensures that your child is placed for next year so that you will continue to receive information throughout the summer. All registrations are done online, just click on the “Enroll Now” link at the top of the page. Feel free to contact the Office for assistance (520.908.3600).
A Note From Our Library
The end of the school year is quickly approaching. Please look high and low for all library books and please return them before the last day of school. We prefer lost books be replaced by buying another. Remember any lost library books will be fined. If not, fines can be paid online or in the office. If paying by cash, you must use exact change. Thank you so much for all your help getting our books back into the library.
Lost & Found
Our Lost & Found is overflowing with many coats, jackets, lunch boxes, water bottles, etc.!! If your child is missing an item, please come by the Office and ask for the Lost & Found area in the courtyard to see if it is there - or make sure your child is checking the Lost & Found for any missing items! Anything left over on the last day of school - will be donated to the Family Resource Centers!
Gum
Reminder, we are a gum free campus. Students should not have gum at any point while on campus. Please help us keep our campus clean by reminding our students gum is for home.
Stay Informed
We want you to stay informed. You can ensure you don’t miss important Parentlink notifications by ensuring your information is current in ParentVue (phone/email). If you are still not getting notifications be sure you have not blocked the phone number or that your spam filter is not blocking emails. You can also look for current information on our school marquee, our Facebook page (@GrijalvaES), and our webpage.
