Boosterthon Update!
What is Boosterthon? Boosterthon is the ONE school fundraiser that Griffis participates in all year! It is a fun Glow Run that all students participate in. All students will receive a t-shirt from PTO. Students can earn prizes for donations and for registering online.
When is the Glow Run? The run is Friday, 9/20 in the gym during Specials time. Please make sure your student wears tennis shoes to run fast!
Can parents/visitors attend? PTO has volunteers signed up for prizes and the water table at the run. Unfortunately, due to space in the gym parents/visitors are not able to attend this event.
What is our goal? Our school goal is 20k, we are SO close at 16k right now! If we reach our goal Mrs. Colwell and Mrs. Gray will get slimed!
Go to mybooster.com today to donate to our school. Thank you for your continued support!
Pre-K is very thankful for Officer Galvan! He helps us everyday at school. Today he taught us all about being a police officer.

Today was our first GLOW Celebration of the school year! We recognized Griffis GLOW Getters, Students that shine bright at school and Character Students of the Month. 4th Grade won the spirit stick competition! It's a Great Day to be a FOX, GLOW Griffis!
Mrs. Willhoit's class took on a STEM challenge of building a tower out of paper! We tested our creativity, engineering skills, and problem-solving abilities. We had limited materials—just paper and scissors—to design a tower that is both tall and stable. They did great!!
Students in Mrs. Dennison's Science classes conducted a fun experiment comparing how friction affects the distance a model car will travel.

Griffis is going to the High School Pep Rally tomorrow. Blackout is our theme! Everyone is encouraged to wear black Foxes gear.

At recess, our third graders got to interact with a few of our Pre-K students! It’s so great to see our third graders become leaders and see the younger ones gain some confidence on the playground!! We love our Griffis family💚🦊
