Have a great weekend everyone!
I’m sending out a BIG request to all parents, students and staff of the Grenora School District. The yearbook staff usually accumulates a lot of great photos throughout the school year that we can use for the yearbook pages and the school newspaper. These photos portray the student life inside our halls, classrooms, cafeteria, on sports arenas, the stage, club and class trips, and on the playground.
This is where we need your help! Our opportunities were cut short due to COVID-19. If you have photos that you think would demonstrate either school subjects at home or athletics or music events from anytime during the school year (this includes all ages), we would like to see them as soon as possible. We won’t be able to use all photos submitted but we will sure look carefully at every one before choosing. Photos must be taken in quality lighting and must be at least 300 dpi. We need team photos from elementary and junior high sports if you have any of those. We have a few students and staff who missed portrait day when Lifetouch came in the fall. PLEASE send me a digital image taken at home. The indoor portrait needs to be taken from the waist up with a solid background. Pretend the Lifetouch photographer is making you smile . We want a portrait in the yearbook for all students and staff! (If you are unsure whether a portrait was taken in the fall, I have that information.)
Seniors, I sent an email a couple weeks ago to each of you with a few requests for photos, quotes, baby pictures and a staged photo of your “Most Likely To…..” pose. Please email all photos to me at stephanie.paine@gpsd99.org . If you have a hard copy, I can scan it and return it to you. Contact me if that is what we need to do.
The yearbook is student driven so we have one month to finish it up. The yearbook staff and I REALLY appreciate your assistance; we want to make the school annual a treasure that helps us remember all of the 2019-2020 school year. Thank you! Stephanie Paine
Wednesday April 22 Update: I want to send a BIG THANK YOU to parents, students, family members, community members, and staff for everything you are doing to continue the education of our children!
Please let us know if you are having any trouble with assignments or technology.

Grenora Public School is joining other schools across the state in “Turn on the Stadium Lights.” We will be turning on the football field lights tonight from 7:00-9:30 p.m. as a way to honor our students, staff, and community members in this time of distance learning while school buildings are closed due to COVID-19. These lights are a symbol of hope and an assurance that the students, families, and community members are in our hearts and on our minds.
Thank you to to the Minnesota High School Activities Association for this idea!

Good Morning,
Pickup and drop off of student materials will be from 11:00-2:30 and from 4:00-5:30 through the doors on the Northwest side of the parking lot. Due to the possible rain, we will have it organized in the hallway and let people in to maintain social distancing. Buses will leave at 11:30 for meal and material drop off!
I am pleased to announce that our online/distance education plan has been approved by the State Superintendent and the Governor! Thank you to all of the school staff who have worked on making this transition!

RE: Approval of District Distance Learning Plans
The COVID-19 pandemic has forced schools to close for an undetermined amount of time. In an executive order, Governor Burgum has directed school districts to develop plans for age-appropriate distance learning plans based on guidance from the Superintendent of Public Instruction.
I am pleased to let you know Superintendent Baesler and Governor Burgum have reviewed and approved your District Distance Learning Plan.
Please post your District Distance Learning Plan on your school website and update as appropriate.
If you have further questions, feel free to contact me at jkolosky@nd.gov or (701) 328-2755.

Due to logistics problems associated with the coronavirus in selling and collecting tickets for the fishing raffle, the April daily drawing will be postponed to May. This will give everyone more time to buy tickets and we’ll be ready to fish when our social distancing is lifted!
Thanks for your continued support,
Grenora Public School Foundation
Reminder:
Parents have to be with to check out electronic devices. Pick up time today is 11:30-2:30 and 4:00-5:30
