Hello, New Grant TK-8 Families!

Welcome to Grant!! We are so happy to have you join the Grant community. We know moving to a new school can be stressful under the best of circumstances, and in this new environment of distance learning there is even more stress and added uncertainty. We can’t wait for you to get to know our wonderful teachers, parents and kids – it is a wonderful community.

In the meantime, we are here to help! We want to help make the transition into our school as easy as possible for you, your family and your child(ren), especially during these challenging times.

Several parents have volunteered to receive your questions or to help troubleshoot problems you may be having.

Email these parents if you have questions or need help with anything:

• Grades TK-2: Shira Bicknell (mom to 1st and 4th graders)– ShiraJennifer2002@yahoo.com
  

• Grades 3-5: Elisa Wilson (mom to 4th and 7th graders)– Elisa_Wilson@yahoo.com
  

• Grades 6-8: Jill Baltan (mom to 7th and 9th graders (Grant graduate)) – JillBaltan@yahoo.com
  

• Para espanol: Anna Arnsten (mom to a 6th grader) – annarella_arnsten@hotmail.com

We hope you will reach out with any troubles you are having, or questions you have; we would also like to hear if things are going ok (or even great) for you and your families.

Again, welcome to Grant!
