What a day to be a Grizzly! 🐾 Yesterday was packed with energy, achievement, and a whole lot of whipped cream.
We kicked things off by celebrating our rockstars with the Quality Work & Behavior awards, followed by some high-stakes competition in the Staff/Student Peep Relay! 🐥 The Griffin Drill Team absolutely crushed their performance, keeping the energy sky-high.
To top it all off, our top fundraisers for the American Heart Association got their "sweet" revenge by throwing pies at some very brave staff members! 🥧 High fives to everyone who participated and donated to such a great cause.

Today, our 7th-grade students had the profound honor of hosting Ingrid Steppic, a speaker from the Holocaust Center for Humanity. Ingrid shared her family’s incredible "legacy of rescue," a story of courage and humanity that left a lasting impact on everyone in the room. 🕊️
Ingrid told the story of her parents, Jan and Nel Kanis, who were recognized by Israel in 1971 as "Righteous Among the Nations." During the Nazi occupation of Holland, Jan used his position as a post office manager to intercept mail and join the Dutch Underground. Together, they risked everything to organize hiding places and save the lives of approximately 40 Jewish refugees.
Even after Jan was arrested for his resistance activities and sent to the Dachau concentration camp, the family’s commitment to doing what was right never wavered.
Ingrid’s visit reminded us all of the Holocaust Center’s mission: Educate. Inspire. Take Action. Her parents’ bravery serves as a timeless reminder that even in the darkest times, individuals have the power to stand up for others and change the course of history.
Thank you, Ingrid, for sharing your family’s history and inspiring our students to be "Upstanders" in their own communities. 🕯️✨

Giving back never looked so good! ❤️ Last week, our National Junior Honor Society students spent time volunteering at the local food bank. From sorting donations to packing essentials, these students are proof that you’re never too young to make a big impact in your community. So proud of their hard work and leadership!

🌈 Feeling lucky to be a Grizzly today! 🍀
Our hallways have been transformed into a green wonderland as the Green Grizzlies celebrate St. Patrick’s Day in style! From leprechaun sightings (we found the paw prints to prove it! 🐾) to some seriously impressive rainbow art, the spirit of the Irish is alive and well at Griffin School.
We hope everyone has a safe and wonderful St. Patrick's Day filled with luck, laughter, and maybe a little bit of gold! ✨

Today, our school community gathered to honor the life and enduring legacy of Billy Frank Jr. ✨
We were incredibly honored to welcome members of the Squaxin Island Tribe, who filled our gym with the powerful sounds of drumming, traditional dance, and stories of resilience. A highlight for everyone was when our students and staff were invited to join the dance—a beautiful reminder that we are all connected to this land and its history.
Thank you to the Squaxin Island Tribal members for sharing your culture and inspiring the next generation of environmental stewards.
Billy Frank Jr. stated: "I believe in the sun and the stars, the water, the tides, the floods, the owls, the hawks flying, the river running, the wind talking. They tell us how healthy things are. Because we and they are the same."
