Behind every thriving school team is a principal who leads with vision and heart. During National Principals Month, let's recognize the leader who makes collaboration possible and success achievable. We are so thankful for Mr. Ahearn's leadership and dedication to the school community here at Grand Ridge. His commitment to the students and staff is what makes this school great. On this Principals Appreciation Day, we say thank you!
