The Grand View 7th & 8th girls won against Maryetta on Thursday while the 7th & boys came up a little short.
Grand View students celebrated World Kindness day! Students decorated the halls and shared their ideas on ways to be kind and staff rewarded students who were “caught” doing kind deeds. 6th graders made kindness flowers for the middle school. The school came together to weave a “kindness quilt” for the cafeteria–each section of the “quilt” was hand made by a different student or teacher. Thank you to Mrs. Hatley, Mrs. White, Ms. Carroll, Mrs. Mae and Mrs. Scott for making this day happen!
