Good evening parents! This is a reminder about tonight's (Thursday, August 14) FFA parent/student meeting at 6 pm. Please enter from the front of PGM. We will meet in the cafeteria.
Today, our administrators took the time to meet with our students to review PBIS expectations, helping everyone remember what it means to Be Safe, Be Accountable, Be Involved, and Be a Leader! ⭐️
These conversations are all about making our school a positive community where everyone can thrive. ❤️
We are excited to see our students already showing what it means to SAIL the Viking Way! #PBIS #GoGrove
Although these kids appear to just be drinking water, students in chorus practiced and learned SOVT (Semi Occluded Vocal Tract) exercises using straws, water, and their vocal instruments! These exercises change the airflow and pressure, reducing strain on the vocal folds and increasing their efficiency and recovery. 🎶💧 #STEAM
