Welcome to what promises to be another fantastic school year at The Grove! We are incredibly excited about our ninth year here at Piney Grove, and know that is promises to be filled with even more golden opportunities for all of our students as we strive to find ways that we can be even better than we have before! As we begin this new year, we pledge to you . . . our students and parents . . . that this will be a wonderful year of engaging, meaningful and rigorous work in our classrooms, along with some fun and special times through a plethora of extracurricular clubs and activities, performing arts groups, and athletic teams and events we offer and encourage our young Grizzlies to be involved in here at The Grove!
During this 2015 - 2016 school year, we will continue to build upon and refine our foundation of good work and many worthwhile traditions, with none being more important than continuing to build upon our tradition of excellence in education. Our vision? Simply put: Embrace Opportunities . . . Unlock Potential . . . Inspire Excellence!
So to that end our staff of highly qualified professional educators and support personnel is committed to providing our students many opportunities --- both inside and outside of the classroom --- for high caliber and quality learning, continual growth, leadership opportunities, and achieving at a high level of excellence! We pledge that this will be our focus daily, and we invite and encourage you. . . our students and parents. . . to work in partnership with us to seize these opportunities in all five facets of our Piney Grove program --- Academics (first and foremost always!), The Arts, Athletics, Activities, and Altruistic Endeavors.
We look forward to a very positive and productive year together! And we extend a special, yearlong invitation to our parents to join us at school activities and events whenever you can. We want . . . we need . . . and we value your involvement and support in your child’s education! For it is key to the success of your young Grizzly during his/her middle school years.
