Sierra Grande Families—We Need Your Help!

Every family counts! Please complete your confidential Family Economic Data Survey (FEDS) during registration. We understand that some families may be hesitant to provide income information, but please know that your information is 100% confidential and is never shared. The survey is used only to determine eligibility for state and federal funding that directly supports Sierra Grande School and our students.

Even if you don't think your family will qualify, we encourage every family to complete the survey. The information collected helps our school receive funding for meals, educational programs, classroom resources, technology, student support services, and other opportunities that benefit all students.

Thank you for supporting Sierra Grande School! See you at Registration, July 27-30th!

Sierra Grande Volleyball hit the ground running this summer by kicking things off at the Adam State Summer Camp! We would like to extend a heartfelt thank you to everyone who donated and supported our Aspen Acres Fire fundraiser. Because of your generosity, we were able to assemble and donate 300 toiletry and snack kits, along with a $1,000 monetary donation, to support the firefighters and families impacted by the Aspen Acres Fire. Your kindness and support have made a meaningful difference. As a team, we will continue to stand with those affected by the fire by proudly wearing our Sierra Grande Volleyball Aspen Acres Fire Support shirts throughout the remainder of our summer camps. From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for helping us give back to those who have given so much to our communities. 🖤🏐🐾
