Summer meals are back again! 🍴 This option is available for ANY child between the ages of 0-18. They don't have to be enrolled in the Gravette School District to receive this opportunity.
-How does it work ❓Starting June 3rd from 11-:12:30pm, you pull around the back of Gravette Upper Elementary (as shown in the map below) and give the names of the kids you are picking up lunches for. Then one of our lunch bunch ladies will hand you said amount of sack lunches & milks. Please note that our lunch options are fixed, and we are unable to accommodate individual customization requests. We appreciate your understanding!
-What kind of lunches are they ❓ Take a look at the menu attached! Note: Breakfast is also included in the sack lunch.
-SACK LUNCHES WILL NOT BE SERVED ON FRIDAYS ‼ Friday's meal/milks will be served on Thursdays. Therefore you will get double on Thursday.
Today's surprise reward for hitting attendance goals during testing was a PARK DAYYYY 🥳 Each grade took turns walking to the park, having a delicious lunch thanks to Grand Savings Bank, and playing in the sunshine.

TEACHER APPRECIATION WEEK IS HERE. Let's show our teachers how much we love and appreciate them! Showing someone you care for them doesn't always have to equal spending money, here are some ideas to show that special teacher in your life how much they mean to you/your child:
🧡 Write a heartfelt letter: Express your feelings in a thoughtful letter. Include specific examples of how they have impacted your life.
🧡 Create a handmade card: A personalized card can show your teacher how much you appreciate them. Include a meaningful message inside.
🧡 Offer a sincere verbal thank you via email, phone call, or in person: Sometimes, a simple thank you in person can mean a lot. Be genuine and specific about why you appreciate them.
🧡Recommend them: If you're no longer in their class, but they were exceptional, recommend them to others or write a positive review online.
