About Grant Elementary School
Vision Statement
The Grant School Community, which includes students, their families, staff, and community members, will work together to create a safe and caring learning environment in which students will become self-directed learners, collaborative workers, critical thinkers, and responsible citizens. Families will share in the responsibility for their child's success through their active support of the educational process.
Academic Excellence
Grant's strength is a compilation of outstanding teaching, incredible parent involvement and wonderful students. Our diversity reflects the greater Santa Monica population. We like to say at Grant, “We have a little bit of everything.” Our teaching staff works in grade level and data teams to analyze student work and determine strategies to enhance best teaching practices.
Awards and Special Assemblies
In an effort to recognize children at Grant, there are regular Awards Assemblies throughout the year. Parents are invited to attend these celebrations. With a focus on character building, students will be recognized for the six pillars of character. (TRRFCC) Trustworthiness, Respect, Responsibility, Fairness, Caring and Citizenship.
About Grant Elementary’s PTA:
PTA After School Enrichment Program
The Grant PTA After School Enrichment Program offers a variety of classes for students in grades K-5. We offer three to four six-week sessions throughout the year. Children may choose classes that are interesting, challenging and fun. The classes are reasonably priced, with scholarships readily available. Qualified and talented instructors including Grant teachers have designed courses for the children of Grant.
The Quiet Center
The PTA has organized and implemented “The Quiet Center,” an alternative activity station during lunch/recess. Students may choose to play board games, work on daily art projects, fold and fly paper airplanes or work on puzzles during their recess time. Staffed by a paid playground supervisor and parent volunteers, The Quiet Center has become quite the popular place to be during lunch.
