Principal's Message

Welcome to all of our returning and incoming Christine Grant Elementary students and families! I am very honored to be the principal of Christine Grant and look forward to teaming with you all as we continually grow our school culture. Our traditions, celebrations, and collective beliefs within and beyond the walls of the school have made great strides during our first four years of being open and will surely grow in the years to come.
Feel free to contact me with any questions.
Best,Ken Turnis, Principal
