Principal Ten Eyck 

Dear GES Families,

It's officially here! The last week of school!

It's been a pleasure getting to know school families, working with the dedicated staff and most of all, seeing your students each day and watching them make learn and grow.

Soon, you'll be meeting Ms. Strong, the new principal and I have no doubt she will be a great fit for Granville Elementary. 

Please do take a look at the summer resources below and consider signing up for the free programming. They are great!

I wish you and your family a wonderful summer.

Don't forget to get some daily outdoor time too!

Warmly,

Ms. Ten Eyck 

Principal, Granville Elementary School
