Grant School Home

Recently, Mrs. Freschi's class was visited by Dumont resident Liam McCormack. This amazing young man was diagnosed with Autism back in 2009. He enthusiastically shared with students the unique experiences and challenges he faced growing up. His important message to students was " Just because you learn differently, does NOT mean you are less capable than anyone else!" Liam is also an accomplished artist and has his own hand drawn sticker company, "The Sticker Spectrum." Each student received a packet of some of his stickers. Thanks Liam for sharing your story!

Thanks to our PTO, Grant School students excitedly welcomed children's author/Illustrator Mike Malbrough. Mr. Malbrough shared the process he goes through when writing stories and sketching the pictures to go with them. It was another great way we celebrated Read Across America!

Mrs. Manna’s 2nd grade class has been learning about famous people that have made a difference. Each student chose a person and created amazing “Pop Bottle Figures” made out of recycled water bottles.
