Principal's Corner

Welcome to Grafenwoehr Elementary School, home of the Grizzlies!

It is my pleasure to welcome you into our family of over 300 STAR students. We support families by offering a world class education from grades PreK through 5 here on Tower Barracks in our 21st Century building.

We are committed to the education of your child. With a broad rigorous curriculum, ample supports to ensure your child can achieve the high expectations set by our educators, opportunities to engage with the community on and off base, and strong systems of support, you will find everything you and your student need to be successful learners and helpful citizens.

We love having our parents be part of our team and we encourage you to join our PTA (Parent Teacher Association) and our SAC (School Advisory Committee). We have an incredible partnership with the 589th Iron Caissons but we invite our entire community to come in and volunteer. You are always welcome at GES.

Grafenwoehr Elementary is a proud member of USAG Bavaria and we strive to be a big reason why it really is Better in Bavaria!

Please check out our Facebook page and read our weekly newsletter, The Grizzly Growler, in addition to visiting our webpage for all the latest happenings. We can’t wait to welcome you to our family.

Published on June 3, 2025
As we come to the close of another school year, it’s a moment to reflect on all that we’ve accomplished and the growth we’ve witnessed. It’s been a year of learning, challenges, and celebration, and we couldn’t be prouder of our students, staff, and families for their hard work and dedication.

Connecting Voices Across the Globe: Celebrating Speech-Language Pathologists in DoDEA

Published on May 7, 2025
May is National Speech-Language-Hearing Month - a time to recognize the importance of communication and to honor the professionals who make it possible for so many students to find their voice. Across the Department of Defense Education Activity (DoDEA) schools, Speech-Language Pathologists (SLPs) play a vital role in supporting student success, regardless of location, language, or need. Though separated by oceans and time zones, DoDEA SLPs have found a powerful way to stay connected and collaborate through a Microsoft TEAMS group that spans the globe.
