PEG had the pleasure to host Lindsey Weaver, Great River's IB and CAS coordinator, and Gina Sedlacek, Adolescent Program Assistant!

Lindsey expressed the desire to have more varied and exciting internship opportunities available for 11th and 12th grade students. Is your workplace or makerspace in need of an intern on Wednesdays from 1:00-3:45pm? Email Lindsey at lweaver@greatriverschool.org, or scan the QR code below and follow the google form prompts.

Gina Sedlacek is seeking individuals who have a unique talent, special interest, or passion for Lower Adolescent CAS projects. These individuals would come to campus or host students in their space once a week for 2-4 weeks to share their specialities! No interest is too niche, if you can share, email Gina at gsedlacek@greatriverschool.org, or scan the QR code below and follow the google form prompts.

March Conferences are March 21st and March 22nd!

Let's feed our amazing staff!

This round, PEG will be collecting donations for staff meals during conferences. Ordering through the kitchen will keep costs low and centralize ingredients/food and resources. Scan the QR code for PayPal or Venmo to donate!

Would you rather donate your time? Wonderful! We need helping hands in the kitchen preparing food and serving our staff. Click here to volunteer!

Join the committee to help plan the Blue Heron Bash, our biggest fundraiser and a great night out! The next planning meeting is December 14th, at 6:00pm, but feel free to reach out earlier to Heather Thomas to join in on the fun!

Save the date: Blue Heron Bash is April 20th, 2024!

Thank you to everyone who was able to contribute to the holiday staff gift cards! Every staff member was gifted $60; a GRS record! This wouldn't have been impossible without the amazing support of GRS families, so...

The Parent Engagement Group works to create GRS community events throughout the year. "PEG" meets once per month, usually on the first Monday of each month (see GRS calendar) in person AND on Zoom.

No volunteer obligations are necessary; come when you can, volunteer or organize events that speak to your creativity, or just offer your expertise, knowledge, and support!

Next Meeting is Monday, February 5th, from 6:30-7:30pm, GRS Zoom Meeting: Click Here
