School is still in Session
Even though we as a country, state, and community are going through
unprecedented times with the outbreak of COVID-19, the education system and
its staff have proven to be resilient in continuing to provide education to our
students. Though the classroom and its enviornment looks a little different these
days, there are still educators and parents working harder than ever to make sure
the future of our youth looks bright. Gruver ISD is still providing instruction to
students through virtual outlets and paper packets as well as providing free meals
to students.
Students and parents a like are also getting a taste of homeschooling! We have
featured some fun photos submitted by parents to give a fun glimpse into what
life is like HOMESCHOOLING (see Photo Galleries on pg. 9 & 10).

Anatomy students took
selfies with objects and had
to compare those objects to
the functions of the
different body systems.
Biology students also took
selfies with 10 living
organisms and had to
identify them by scientific
name and make a
dichotomous key from
them.
