Grizzly Growl: October 17, 2025

Dear Granite Families,
This week our students learned about the behaviors and habits of good digital citizens. Students were reinforced with green bear paws for practicing good digitali citizen behaviors at school. On Monday, we’ll have a prize drawing for our kiddos who earned green DigCit tickets!
If you ever experience online meanness, remember to S-T-O-P!

S is for Step away
T is for Tell a trusted adult
O is for Only use OK sites
P is for Pause and think

As always, thank you for supporting our wonderful school community. Please reach out anytime with questions or feedback.
Warmly,
Elcena Saline

Reflections Due Monday Oct. 20!

There is only one week left for Reflections! You can submit one entry per category. What a great way to spend time during Fall Break!
The class with the most entries will receive an Ice cream sundae party again. Everyone that enters will receive a prize which they will receive when they get out of class for a few minutes. The winning entries receive medals and trophies!
We can’t wait to see what you Granite Grizzlies come up with.
