Families should drop off students at the designated curbside area to ensure safety and ease of access.
If you need to enter the school or are waiting during drop-off, please park in the front parking lot instead of the drop-off circle to keep traffic flowing smoothly.

PS: It Works! Parenting Skills Workshop Series
The Groton Central School District is pleased to offer a parent workshop on April 11th, 2024 from 6:00 - 7:30 PM in the Groton Jr/Sr High School Cafeteria.
The workshop is entitled Parenting in the Age of Social Media. The Workshop will educate families regarding the opportunities technology provides and the pitfalls/risks of being connected all the time. Social media will be addressed along with understanding when to seek help and what that might look like. Parents will be provided with best practices, practical boundaries to set, and help with tools to set limits without engaging in constant power struggles.
During this time, we will be offering child care. National Honor Society students will be volunteering their time to watch children in the Junior High School Gymnasium. If you know that you will need child care during this time, please email either Mr. Doane (adoane@grotoncs.org) or Adrienne Marquis (amarquis@grotoncs.org).
