A GRPS Magazine | July 2021

Looking Back at Winter 2021

The 2020-2021 school year has been challenging! GRPS families, students, staff members, and stakeholders had to adjust, re-adjust, and flex more than we all thought humanly possible. But, we did it with your help and support. The 2020-2021 school year is officially in the books!

Our July magazine is a wrap-up to the school year and highlights some of our favorite articles from the winter 2021 semester.
