We are excited to announce the return of our Veterans Day Parade on Tuesday November 11th, at 10:00 AM!
After many years, this special tradition is back to honor the brave men and women who have served our country.
The parade route will begin at Green River Rec Center and will go down Hitching Post Drive and end in the back parking lot of Lincoln Middle School.
Students from our elementaries (Granger, Harrison, Mckinnon, Monroe, Truman and Washington) will be marching in honor of the brave men and women who have served our country. We invite our community to come out and cheer them on!
Our educators are diving into the new Houghton Mifflin Harcourt curriculum!
This morning at Harrison the teachers began with a mini-lesson led by our HMH trainer, providing teachers with valuable insights and strategies before the school day started. Throughout the day, the trainer will observe classrooms, offer support, and collaborate with teaching teams during their PLC times to ensure a smooth and successful implementation of the new curriculum.

Bills, budgets, and baby expenses — oh my!
Our students at the Green River High School got a taste of the real world today during Trona Valley Federal Credit Union’s Reality Fair!
They used an app to see their “grown-up life,” complete with jobs, spouses, kids, savings, and debt. Then they hit up different stations to decide how to spend (and save) wisely.
Such a fun way to learn how budgeting works in real life — thank you, Trona Valley Federal Credit Union, for this awesome experience!
