๐๏ธ Gravette is Going Gold on September 4! Weโll be joining other schools across Northwest Arkansas in recognizing Childhood Cancer Awareness Month.
Students and staff are encouraged to wear gold or yellow to show support for children fighting cancer and their families. At Gravette Middle School, this is especially meaningful as one of our Lions is currently battling brain cancer.
Your support shows strength and solidarity with families facing the hardship of childhood cancer. Please keep them in your thoughts and prayers. ๐ฆ๐งก #LionPride #GravetteSchools
