Rebel Nation,

Rebel Nation, the GR after prom is looking for your support with 2 of their fundraisers! Buy a Super Bowl square, or participate in a fun night of music bingo!


As part of our Cowboy/Cowgirl Week, we read the book Cactus Hotel and learned about the Saguaro cactus and the many different animals that make the cactus their home. In math, the kids made their own cactus hotels and created addition problems with the birds living in their hotels. The best part of the day was seeing how excited the kids were to receive their own copy of the book Cactus Hotel!








Rebel Nation,
On Tuesday January 27th, we're having a Red Out night when we host Grundy Center for G/B high school basketball. The Red Out will be for the American Heart Association.
High school players, coaches, and cheerleaders will be wearing red t-shirts for their warm-up shirts. We will also have a director representing the American Heart Association that will be selling t-shirts outside of the gym and we will have activities planned during both varsity half times.
You can scan the QR code on the left side that says 'GRHSGIVES" to help the American Heart Association.
We are excited about this night and looking forward to helping a GReat cause and to have some GReat games on the court!

It's Extension Week during WIN at GR JH/HS. In Mrs. Rowe's room, the topic is Babysitting Clinic. Thanks to Jenny Hulme, Tama County, and Andrea Traeger, Grundy County, Extension Offices, this group talked about age-appropriate toys and choking hazards today. Each student then got to make a toy that can be used in various ways acr different age-spans. These toys can be taken with the students when they babysit.



The TK kids practiced using perseverance during our Rattlesnake Round-Up!
