GWPO supports Grant Watts Elementary students and staff in a variety of ways!
Check out some of the work that GWPO has provided for our wolf pack:
The Wolves Den
GWPO works with staff to restock and get the shop ready for when students visit The Wolves Den to make purchases with their earned tokens. We love partnering with our staff to provide experiences that reinforce students being Safe, Respectful, and Responsible at school!

Garden Project
We can’t wait to see our learners exploring the space, growing plants and food, and connecting with their environment. |

Valentine's Day Candy Gram Fundraiser
GWPO hosted a Valentine's Day Candy Gram Fundraiser! Packets were sent home with students in their Take-Home folders. Families and friends were encouraged to fill out the grams to students and staff and then include $1 per gram. A lollipop was added to the gram, and then delivered to classrooms and staff in time for Valentine's Day parties. 499 Candy Grams were purchased! After expenses, this fundraiser raised $417.16!! It was heartwarming to read notes from students proclaiming their teachers as THE BEST TEACHER EER or notes thanking staff for being such wonderful helpers. Students also shared their love for each other. We have a wonderful school filled with love! |

12 Days of Treat Giving 2021
To count down the final 12 days before Winter Break, GWPO coordinated treat days for Grant Watts staff. Families were encouraged to sign up and provide either homemade or store-bought cookies and/or holiday treats to be placed in the staff room for all to enjoy! Days were filled with muffins, cookies, donuts, egg bites, and treats of all kinds. This act of kindness really hit the spot for the countdown to Winter Break. Thank you to all signed up! |

Caring Trees 2021
In the months of November and December, our Profile of a Graduate character focus is Caring . Four trees, one per grade, was painted and displayed under the covered area at the entrance of the school. Leaf templates were sent home, and students were encouraged to have conversations about how we show we are caring. Thank you to all that participated! Our trees look amazing!! Grant Watts has very caring students in our wolf pack!

Happy Halloween! Thanks to a fabulous crew of parent volunteers, there were magical spaces in the front of Grant Watts. Students were able to take some spooktacular and faBOOlous photos! |
