The PTO Executive Board, as well as our committee chairs and members, are hard at work to make sure that the 2018-19 school year is full of fun, exciting programming and educational experiences for PreK–Grade 5 students and their families. We need your help to ensure our success.
This past week Granby Memorial High School hosted its 10-year New England Association of Schools and Colleges (NEASC) accreditation visit. The high school staff did a terrific job preparing for this important school improvement visit.
Dr. Addley welcomed everyone back to another school year and recognized students, staff members and parents for their patience and flexibility during the week of extreme heat.
It’s the start of another year and the Parents for a Safe Grad Night need your help to begin planning a great event for the class of 2019. Safe Grad Night is held at the Granby YMCA on graduation night and offers a fun-filled, substance-free event for seniors.
The Granby Board of Selectmen is taking applications for a 2018-2019 Student Liaison who will attend the regular meetings (first and third Mondays of the month) and report on happenings at the high school as well as get an education in the town government.
The Granby Public Schools proudly recognized James Janski as the 2018-2019 Teacher of the Year during closing ceremonies on June 21.
The Connecticut Department of Agriculture and the Granby Public Schools have been awarded grants from the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) Food and Nutrition Service (FNS) as part of an effort to bring nutritious local foods into schools and create new economic opportunities for farmers. As part of the USDA nationwide Farm to School Program, the $5.2 million in grants will impact 6,000 schools and 2.8 million students.
For those new to Granby, or new to the school system, the PTO serves the students, their families and school staff at Kelly Lane Primary School (grades Pre-K-2) and Wells Road Intermediate School (grades 3-5).
