4th Grade Parents, we still need your help!
4th grade students will be able to participate in Robotics this year through an application process. All of our Griffis Teams last year advanced to the World Competition. The future looks BRIGHT for our students! More details will be sent at a later date regarding Robotics and the application process. We want to get a head start on fundraising. It is quite an expensive but also an AMAZING event to attend.
Our first opportunity to raise money is volunteering to work the Varsity Football Game on Aug. 26. The money raised at this will be divided by all of the robotics programs that send participants to help. If you are able to volunteer and support our Robotics Teams, please use the link below to sign up. Your students may help you work also. They always seem to enjoy working. You do not have to work the entire game. The have it split up by 1st and 2nd half. Even though we don't know who will be on the Robotics team just yet, you will be supporting an amazing organization and we would be very appreciative.
