1 day before, 3 days before

Grattan Film Fest is back (November 16th), and we need volunteers!

 

Volunteers are essential to making Film Fest, so please sign up for a shift or two!

 

The Film Festival kicks off at 5:30pm before we all settle into watching  IF  Movie at 6:30pm!

 

Admission is free and food (so many options this year!), snacks, and beverages will be available for purchase. 

 

Thank you in advance for all your help and we would not be able to have this tradition without all of your help to make this another memorable event for every student and family.
