The Grafton Homecoming Parade is TOMORROW at 6:00 PM in Downtown Grafton! 🐾💛💙
Come out and cheer on GHS organizations and sports teams, Homecoming princesses, TCMS teams and organizations, and our amazing youth groups as they parade through town! 🎺🏈
Let’s show our community spirit and support our students — bring your family, friends, and plenty of Bearcat pride! 🙌

At Grafton High School, we are more than just a school — we are a family. Right now, several members of our staff, whose names we are not included to respect their privacy, are facing serious medical and health challenges. These are individuals who have given so much of their time, care, and energy to our students and community, and now it’s our turn to show them that Bearcats do not fight alone.
We are collecting donations to help support these staff members as they navigate difficult times. All funds raised will go directly toward assisting with medical expenses and other related costs to help alleviate them financially as they face these battles.
Every contribution, no matter the amount, will help lighten their burden and remind them that they are surrounded by a community that stands behind them with love and strength. Cash donations will be collected all throughout spirit week at the check in table or can be given to Mrs. Himes. You are also welcome to donate online if you prefer. Please be sure to share this post to get the word out to our community.
Let’s come together as Bearcats to lift up those who have lifted us for so long. Thank you for your kindness, generosity, and continued support.
Once a Bearcat, always a Bearcat.
