Grizzly Growler

Vol. 1 // August 18, 2023
A few words from Mr. Baker...
We also encourage students to find opportunities outside of their classes to be involved in the Grizzly community. This week we supplied all students with a "Grizzly Planner." Please take a few minutes to review the planner with your student, and discuss how they may be able to use it to be successful in their classes and extracurriculars.
Thank you and we look forward to a great year ahead.
Principal Baker
