Please complete the PTA Back to School Forms, which we ask every family to submit to help the PTA prepare for the school year.

Hot Lunch Update!

Thursday, 8/30, 8:30 am in the Teacher Lounge - Hot Lunch Taskforce meeting.  Please bring your ideas for improving hot lunch.  All parents welcome.  If you are unable to attend, please send your comments and suggestions to gbhotlunch@gmail.com.

The hot lunch team desperately needs more volunteers!  If your child loves pizza on Friday, or if YOU love not having to pack lunches, please be aware that the GB hot lunch program is in danger of being eliminated because we do not have enough parents to staff it.

Volunteer with friends! We are in need of the following:

1) 3 volunteers for every other Tuesday

2) 1 volunteer for every other Wednesday

3) 1 volunteer for every other Thursday

4) 2 volunteers for every other Friday

Please contact Camilla (gbhotlunch@gmail.com) to help ensure our lunch program can continue.

 Thank you Grizzly Parents,

-GB Lunch Team
