Grand Avenue Hosts Olympics

Editor's Note: This article was written by representatives of the Bellmore-Merrick Central High School District.

In a fabulous display of school spirit, students at Grand Avenue Middle School celebrated The Grand Olympics during the week of the abbreviated, “Winter Recess”.

Like Bellmore Patch and Merrick Patch on Facebook.

Two days of athletic competition were held (7th and 8th grade on separate days) between academic teams, to determine which team would be the winner! Grand Olympics is held during Grand Avenue’s School Spirit Week, which gives students and staff alike an opportunity to celebrate and cheer their school pride.

During Grand Olympics, students and teachers not only celebrate their school pride, but also pride in their academic teams.

Congratulations to team RICE-A-RONIES (7th grade) and team TACO, our 2013 Grand Olympic Champions!
