Grays Lake Elementary, located 35 miles north of Soda Springs in Wayan, Idaho, currently enrolls six students grades K-6. The staff includes one certified teacher and one aide/custodian. The school building is over 50-years old and has been remodeled over the years to meet the students' needs. Until the early 1940's, the Grays Lake Valley offered high school classes up to the tenth grade, as well as elementary school.

Major events of the year include the traditional Christmas program which has been a community event for many years. A spring program has also been added.

MISSION STATEMENT

As reading is prime to all other curriculum, we feel it is important to adopt the mission statement: "EVERY CHILD A READER."

We have done much to try to ensure that this is true of all our students:

	We are using the Accelerated Reading Program.
	We enjoy a silent sustained reading time during the day.
	Teachers model reading daily.
	Students work with reading programs like the Pizza Hut's "Book-It!" program.
	We work daily on phonics, comprehension, and just good old practice.
	Books are rotated regularly from neighboring libraries to compliment our growing supply.

We feel a great responsibility to contribute to our student's success in education by making sure that every child is indeed a reader.
