Dear Griffin Community/Parents and Guardians,

As we approach the end of the semester, I want to take a moment to thank each of you for your continued support and dedication to our school community. It has been a rewarding and productive first semester, and I am so proud of our students' hard work and perseverance.

With the holiday season upon us, I hope you all take the opportunity to relax, recharge, and enjoy quality time with loved ones. Our school will be on break from Dec. 23rd through Jan. 6th, and we look forward to welcoming students back in the new year, refreshed and ready for the next chapter of learning and growth.

Thank you again for your partnership in making this semester a success. Wishing everyone a joyful, peaceful, and safe holiday season.

Warm regards,

Principal Soileau

As you are decluttering over winter break, if you have any gently worn or new hoodies, please have your student(s) drop them off in the dropbox in the cafeteria of the school.

As we approach winter break, let’s rally together to help our students finish the semester on a high note! Parents, please encourage your students to stay focused and committed by attending school every day—even in the days leading up to and following the break. Consistent attendance sets the foundation for success, so let’s make every day count! Spread the message:

"Attendance matters—every day, every student!"
