Seven of our GHS art students have created portraits to send to disadvantaged children in India! As part of the Memory Project, the effort aims to help kids feel acknowledged and encouraged, while also providing them with special childhood memories. The Memory Project is a nonprofit organization that invites art students to create portraits for youth who have faced substantial challenges. It helps art teachers and their students create special gifts for children in tough situations worldwide. This project has become a favorite at GHS each year!

As part of a Toddler Development unit, students in Ms. Taylor's Child Development class at GHS learned about the social and emotional development of children ages 2-5. To address the challenges children face when encountering new experiences, social situations, or learning tasks, or when recovering from trauma, students were tasked with creating unique hand-sewn "Fear-Me-Not Monsters." These cuddly companions, designed to offer comfort and security, will be donated to children in the Grantsburg area. Each comes with a personalized profile, including its name, a brief description, special abilities, and a list of its favorite things.  This creative outreach project aims to help young children in Grantsburg feel more confident in facing their fears!

At GHS, students can regularly be found using one of the small group study rooms in the library. It’s a great space to collaborate on projects and get some homework done! 📚 🏴‍☠️#GoGrantsburgPirates

Our high school students had a blast and learned a lot at the Minneapolis Institute of Art and Midtown Global Market! 🎨 A few student art favorites included expressive Impressionist painting “Grainstack, Sun in the Mist” by Claude Monet, “Veiled Lady” by Italian sculptor Raffaelo Monti, and an elaborate 17th century Japanese suit of armor. A special thank you to the adult chaperones who joined the trip. What a fantastic experience for our students! 🏴‍☠️#GoGrantsburgPirates

We will start Winter Break at the end of the school day! ☃️ Students will return to school on Thursday, January 2. We hope you have a wonderful break! Happy Holidays! 🏴‍☠️#GoGrantsburgPirates
