Grayslake North High School will be hosting a Cool School Polar Plunge on Friday, March 14th where staff and students have the opportunity to take the plunge to support Special Olympics Illinois! This will take place on the Football Field at the school during lunch periods. The theme is BLACK & GOLD!
If your student would like to participate in the Polar Plunge, please click on the GNHS Cool School Polar Plunge 03/14/25 link or scan to QR Code to register online and create your own personal fundraising page. Once you create your own personal fundraising page, you can begin to share the link with friends/family to fundraise money to support Special Olympics Illinois. There's a $25 fundraising minimum for students to take the plunge. If your student fundraises $100, they will receive a cool Polar Plunge sweatshirt from Special Olympics Illinois!

Our 3 Grayslake North Plane Pull teams drove out to O'Hare on Saturday morning to participate in the Plane Pull and we raised over $4,000 for Special Olympics Illinois! We won the 2024 Team Spirit Award for our positive energy and for our student-athletes/Grayslake North community being so supportive of our Special Olympics team at the Plane Pull. We can't wait to do it again next year! We appreciate all the support!
