Welcome to the Panther Family – Virtual Family Orientation

Dear Panther Families,

We invite all incoming 7th-grade families and students new to Graves Middle School to join us for our Virtual Family Orientation.

We will share important information to help your family prepare for a successful start to the school year, including school expectations, student supports, communication tools, and opportunities available at GMS. 

📖 Before the meeting, we encourage you to review or bookmark the following resources:
