First National Bank of Griffin recognized Spalding High School freshmen, sophomores and juniors who are 2024 Outstanding Students this morning with breakfast. Thank you FNB for 41 years of investing in our students!
First National Bank hosted the 41st Annual Outstanding Student Banquet last evening. The banquet honored Seniors from Griffin High and Spalding High with a grade point average of 89.5 and higher. Families enjoyed a delicious meal catered by Margo's and heard from inspirational keynote speaker Ben Raymond. Ben is a former athlete, corporate executive turned entrepreneur, philanthropist, motivational speaker, development coach, mentor and author. Congratulations to these outstanding students and thank you to FNB and everyone who helped make this event a success!

On Monday, April 8, 2024, a partial solar eclipse will pass over North America, between 1:45 p.m. and 4:20 p.m., with the sky becoming darkest at the peak of 3:04 p.m. This is our first day back from Spring Break and will be a normal school day for our district. School operations, including check-in and check-out procedures, and all extra-curricular and athletic events will continue as normal. To ensure a safe school day and dismissal, solar-viewing glasses will be provided to all Pre-K through 12th-grade students and teachers.
While this natural phenomenon does provide a unique learning opportunity and is an exciting experience for our students, we urge parents to review the attached safety precautions and discuss them with your child(ren) to ensure the safety of their eyes.
To make this a safe and meaningful learning experience for our students, instructional activities and resources can be found here: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1D2as73oMt0Z0k5I_zlHovdgzoZReXUxTII8DndGbRLY/edit
