Welcome to Grand Ridge Grade School

Our Vision

In partnership with our families and community, Grand Ridge CCSD #95 will educate all students to reach their highest potential.  Grand Ridge will provide a safe learning environment, will respond to students' individual learning and emotional needs, and will maintain high expectations for achievement.  Our goal is to develop students who are responsible, respectful, kind, and passionate for life-long learning.  

PTO Cookbook

The PTO is still collecting recipes for a community cookbook. We would like 2 recipes per family or staff member. Community members without children in the school are also invited to contribute recipes. Please return your recipe sheets or email the recipes to marydomo83@yahoo.com AS SOON AS POSSIBLE. We would like to have the cookbook published over the summer but we can only do that if we have enough recipes. Thank you for your support!
