That was a seriously stylish trip down memory lane! Our students and staff absolutely crushed Throwback Thursday, channeling their favorite retro styles from decades past. 🕶️📼

From from the Renaissance, to the big '50s skirts, to groovy tie-dye and neon leggings to iconic '90s grunge, the halls were filled with some incredible fashion history. You all understood the assignment!

It's amazing to see such creativity and school spirit. Let's keep the good vibes rolling! ✨

Up next for Friday: Book Character Day 📚 Celebrate by dressing up as your favorite book character (please note, no masks allowed).

🐾Griffin's 5th Graders are officially Grizzly Grill All-Stars! 🌟

These helpful students weren't afraid to get their hands dirty, assisting our kitchen staff with a massive lunch prep! They tackled everything from making grilled cheese and Sunbutter & Jam sandwiches to assembling fruit parfaits and prepping the famous Bison Chili. We even had a few volunteers jump in to try their hand at washing dishes! Future chefs in the making! 🧑‍🍳

Spirit Week 2025

Yesterday, Griffin’s 7th and 8th grade band students had the unique opportunity to learn from Mr. Henry Nordhorn, a professional horn player, graduate of the San Francisco Conservatory of Music, and member of the Spokane Symphony Orchestra.

Mr. Nordhorn performed excerpts from a Mozart horn concerto and shared insights into his practice and performance routines, as well as his journey as a professional musician. His visit was both inspiring and educational for our young musicians, offering a glimpse into the dedication and artistry required to perform at the highest level.

We extend our sincere thanks to the Student Orchestras of Greater Olympia (SOGO) for sponsoring this special event. Mr. Nordhorn will be performing with SOGO’s Conservatory Orchestra on November 2.

If you and your student are interested in attending, please see Mrs. Palmer for complimentary ticket vouchers. Click here for ticketing information.

Give it up for the Griffin Band! 🥁

What an incredible night! Our students joined the Capital High School Band on Friday for the football game, and the energy was electric. The combined sound was absolutely massive!

Way to go Grizzlies—you truly rocked the stadium! We are so proud of the talent and teamwork on display.

A huge thank you to Thurston County Judge Indu Thomas for visiting Mrs. Stottlemyre's 7th graders yesterday!

It was a fascinating day of mock trials and open Q&A. This hands-on experience gave students a firsthand look at the court system and the important role of the judicial process. ⚖️
