Grandfriend's Day
Welcome to the Grand Friends Club at Geneva Heights Elementary School! This is a special opportunity for grandparents and grand-friends to immerse themselves in the heart of our school community. Whether you’re shelving books in the library, sharing a story with eager young readers, or simply offering a warm smile in the hallways, your time and care will create lasting memories. Together, we’ll foster a fun and supportive environment for our students while you enjoy some extra-special time with your grandchild.
