Students at Grand View School have piled up some awards lately. The choir recently traveled to the Oklahoma Native American Youth Language Fair in Norman and won a pair of first-place awards, and Grand View continues to enjoy success in Native art competitions.

Grand View School recently hosted a Native American Song and Food Festival wherein approximately 300 parents, students, and community members were able to experience an evening of entertainment and cultural awareness. Choogie Kingfisher emceed this educational event, which allowed attendees the opportunity to hear the Cherokee language vocal talents from the Cherokee Adult Choir, Cherokee Nation Immersion School Choir, and the Grand View School Cherokee Choir.

Good things are happening every day at Grand View School, according to its administrators. Superintendent Ed Kennedy said students are engaged in a variety of learning activities and acts of helping one another out. "Sam Bilby is a second-grade student at Grand View School and he is battling cancer," said Kennedy.

Many thanks to our Cherokee Nation Councilor Rex Jordan for his continued support with our Indian Education Programs.

Grand View School held it's first ever Family STEM Night on April 14. Teachers and volunteers prepared "hands-on" activities related to Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math for families to explore and experiment while learning and having fun. Over 230 students, parents, and grandparents traveled to activities where they were challenged to make predictions, test predictions, and formulate solutions to problems. Science teacher, Brett Bryant, had students exploring with magnet attraction and switch circuits. Younger children visited a float station where they were able to create boats from aluminum foil and other objects to predict how many toy soldiers could float across the pool in their boat. Laura Myers, Grand View Science, and Robotics teacher joined with Kirk Norrid, a representative from the REC (Robotics Education Corporation), to set up remote control robots. Students
were asked to try to place scoring objects in a goal which allowed them to develop eye/hand coordination and driving skills while exploring the engineering process. A large operation table was set up to allow students to try to retrieve objects inside a cut-out area without touching the cut-out sides. Students were also challenged to explore liquids and solids by mixing glue and starch to make slime. A microscope was set up to allow students to get a closer view of crystals made from Borax. Many other activities were available to provide exposure to help to nurture children's inquisitive nature and support higher level thinking skills. "This is one of the best events we've had", said Principal Steve Gillman. "It takes all of us working together, as a family, to do the best we can in teaching and raising our students."

Concern over Grand View School's possible closure brought about 100 parents and staff to hear Derald Glover, Fort Gibson Schools superintendent, speak Thursday night about funding and the future of rural schools. Grand View also hosted the Do Your Best Parent University, with several community service providers and educational representatives set up at tables around the room.
