Lunch on the Lawn November 21st – RSVP Instructions
RSVP Cut Off: Wednesday- November 19th @ 12:00 PM
SMORE with RSVP links: https://secure.smore.com/n/8tyfd
This year, with our new Raptor Safe Event program, we had to get a little creative to keep our Lunch on the Lawn running smoothly!
In the past, our Google Forms allowed us to sort RSVPs by teachers and students, which helped us easily coordinate when students should come out to lunch with their visitors. However, our new Raptor system does not allow us to make those same changes to the RSVP form.
To stay organized, we’ve created a separate RSVP link for each homeroom teacher. This will help us prepare accurate lists for teachers and ensure a smooth check-in process on the day of the event.
Here’s what you need to do:
Go to our Smore newsletter and find your child’s homeroom teacher’s name.
Click the link under their name to RSVP for Lunch on the Lawn.
You will need to RSVP for each child you plan to eat with.
On the day of the event, you’ll only need to scan one QR code when you arrive.
RSVP forms will close at 12:00 p.m. on Wednesday so we can finalize our lists for teachers.
Didn’t RSVP in advance?
No problem — you can still attend! You’ll just need to check in at the front office, which may take a little longer while we get your student to you.

Who are you thankful for @ Griffis?
We know you have a teacher, custodian, paraprofessional, or a member of the office that you are grateful for. Let's let them know!! We love doing this activity for our staff members in the month of November. One of our Capturing Kids' Heart focus is AFFIRMATIONS. We want our teachers to hear affirmations from parents and families also. A kind statement can go a long way. One of my favorite things to see in the classrooms is affirmations notes from staff members, students and parents visible near their desk. It is a reminder that is needed on those hard days. We will print these out for our teachers and share them for them to have. I promise you, it will brighten their day, week and month!

GT students explored the science of flight through a bat-themed engineering challenge.🦇🦇
Their challenge: design and build wings for a paper bat that could really take flight. Some bats soared, some flopped, but everyone had fun experimenting! ✈️
