GRISWOLD SCHOOL PARENTS' CLUB

The Griswold School Parents' Club is a non-profit organization which provides programs and materials to enrich our children's extracurricular, social, and educational activities. Fund raisers are the main source of income for these projects. The Parents' Club has enhanced Griswold School with many contributions including playground equipment, library resources, field trip transportation, computer hardware and software and the presentations of various cultural programs. Meetings are held monthly and membership is open to all parents and guardians of Griswold School children.

The goal of the Parents' Club is to strengthen the relationship between school and community, realizing that it is through joint effort that we can build a better school system for our children.

The Parents' Club needs your support in order to maintain its programs. Your family membership will be appreciated by the children and staff of Griswold School.
