Happy School Nurse Day!
Today we are celebrating our amazing Nurse Brittney!
She is the calm, caring presence our students (and staff!) can always count on. Whether it’s a scraped knee, a stomach ache, or a moment of worry, Nurse Brittney is there with compassion, kindness, and expert care that makes everyone feel safe and supported.
She helps our little ones feel better, comforts big feelings, and keeps our campus running smoothly each and every day. Her heart for kids and dedication to their well-being truly make a difference in the Griffis family.
We are so grateful for you, Nurse Brittney—thank you for all you do!

Happy Testing Coordinator Day!
Today we’re celebrating one of the behind-the-scenes heroes of our campus—Mrs. Shaw!
As our testing coordinator, she keeps all the pieces in place and ensures everything runs smoothly during one of the most important times of the year. From organizing schedules to managing materials and supporting staff, her attention to detail and calm leadership make all the difference.
Because of Mrs. Shaw, our campus is prepared, confident, and set up for success. We are so grateful for the time, dedication, and care she pours into every detail.
Griffis is better because of you, Mrs. Shaw—thank you for all you do!

Happy National Physical Education and Sports Week1
Let’s hear it for our incredible coaches—Coach Sargent and Coach Mann!
They make PE fun and engaging while helping our students learn the rules of the game, the importance of teamwork, and what true sportsmanship looks like. From warm-ups to track practice and everything in between, they keep our students active, motivated, and growing every single day.
They set high expectations, push our athletes to be their best, and are always there cheering them on—both on and off the field.
Griffis is stronger because of these two, and we are so grateful for the energy and passion they bring to our students each day!

School Lunch Hero Day!
Today we celebrate our incredible cafeteria team—our true Lunch Heroes!
Each day, they do so much more than serve meals. They greet our students with smiles, learn their names, and make sure every child is cared for and ready to learn. Their hard work behind the scenes and their kindness in the serving line make a difference in ways that go far beyond the cafeteria.
From early mornings to busy lunch waves, they keep everything running smoothly while fueling our students for success.
Griffis is so thankful for our amazing cafeteria staff—we appreciate you more than you know!

Happy Administrative Professional Day!
Today we are celebrating two of the very best—Mrs. Haley and Mrs. Stephanie!
They are the heart of our front office—helpful, friendly, organized, and truly the knowers of all the things. They are the first smiling faces our families see when they walk through our doors, and they set the tone for kindness and care every single day.
They love our Griffis kiddos BIG, support our staff in countless ways, and somehow keep everything running smoothly behind the scenes. And yes… they even manage to keep Mrs. Colwell on point!
Griffis is a better place because of these two amazing women, and we are beyond grateful for all they do!
