Grant Athletic Hall of Fame
Grant has followed several other Portland high schools in establishing an Athletic Hall of Fame. The inspiration for this is the PIL (Portland Interscholastic League) Hall of Fame, which began naming members in 1983 and holds an annual induction ceremony. You can read the full story about the first Athletic Hall of Fame in this excerpt of the January, 2010 newsletter.
