Grafton Elementary Pre-K are enjoying their Christmas Treats from the wonderful PTO! Thank you Grafton PTO!




In Mrs. Margherio's 4th grade classroom, students engaged in a creative project where they designed their own stocking hats in anticipation of winter. This activity was inspired by the book "The Hat" by Jan Brett. Following the students' design process, Mrs. Margherio's mother, Connie Cooper, a resident of Omaha, Nebraska, knitted the hats based on the students' unique designs. The finished products were then sent back to the classroom, allowing students to take home their personalized creations.




"Thank you, Kayla Eilerman! As a JCHS senior graduating early, your incredible talent and dedication in the Adobe Classroom with Ms. Kolkmeyer have left a lasting impact on our school. From Illinois State Scholar designs, prom and homecoming tickets, float designs, classroom posters, thank you stationery, numerous bulletin boards, and vinyl banners, your creativity shines everywhere we look. Wishing you all the best in your next chapter—you’ll be missed!"

Thank you Mrs. Claus for visiting with our students at West Elementary today!


The creative bulletin board design by JCHS junior Advanced Adobe student Sophia Sutton showcases her artistic talent and design skills!


The Grinch paid a surprise visit to Grafton this morning! He stole our tree lights, messed up decorations, and hung our elf upside down! The Grinch may have tried to steal our Christmas spirit, but he failed! Officer Angel with the Grafton Police Department arrested the Grinch.
