Exciting times! The first day of school is always a great time to see those smiling faces.
Staff and students are smiling, too. Not just the parents.




We love these first day pics. Email media safe pics to vanhoutenj@grandviewr2.org to share them with the world.


Twas the night before school starts and all through Eagle Nation
The kids were at the end of their summer vacation
Their clothes were laid out just ready to be worn
And their backpacks were zipped up and stuffed for the morn
The hallways were gleaming, shined up to a sheen
So much work was done to get them so clean
Crews worked all through the summer in the heat and the sweat
They deserve much more credit and thanks than they get
All the roads they were paved, some new walkways were poured
You like pickleball or basketball, we now have new courts
Mr Zoph walks the hallways, all up and down each
Tomorrow students will learn, and teachers will teach
The kids might be sad for the end of their break
But they also look forward, to see friends when they wake
The teachers and staff will soon all be there
Ready to help out the Eaglets that are put in their care
They finished their trainings, the curricula are in place
Safety measures are practiced and reviewed just in case
As we round out this poem the original’s so long
We welcome Eagle Nation. Let’s start the years strong
Go Eagles! Go Eagles!
Welcome back for the year
Let’s make this year special
Start strong and in high gear
We’re so glad to see you
All treats and no tricks
Let your inner light shine through
All of ‘25 and ‘26
