We have learned that not all of the construction projects will be completed before Open House on Wednesday, August 14. Here is a rundown of where you can enter each building.
Elementary: The main contact area will be in the Elementary Gymnasium. Please enter the building through the doors closest to the gym or the Main/Lower Playground.
Middle School: The main contact area will be in the commons area in front of the Middle School Gym. Enter the building through the east entrance closest to the gym.
High School: The main contact area will be in the third floor hallway near the science rooms. The best place to enter the building is the door accessing the Practical Arts area (Ag and Home Ec. rooms).

I hope this message finds everyone well. I hope the summer has been time for family, friends, adventure, rest, and relaxation for you and your students. We have been focusing on our middle school program for the upcoming school year. We are excited to share it with you. We will be holding grade-level parent meetings to share relevant information for the upcoming school year. We would love to have you join us.
Below are the dates and times for the Parent Meetings:
August 6th: 5th grade (from 5-6pm)
August 6th: 6th grade (from 6-7pm)
August 8th: 7th grade (from 5-6pm)

The meetings will focus on policies, procedures, programs, and goals for the year.

Students do not need to attend.

Buses have finished the afternoon drop-off runs for today. For safety and security sake campus is closed tonight.
Eagle Nation is full of rockstars. Students and staff stepped up and kept their cool under extraordinary circumstances today. We also would like to extend our heartfelt thanks and appreciation to parents and guardians for their understanding and cooperation on a difficult day with weather conditions.
We, as always, feel lucky to be a part of this community and proud of how we come together in difficult times.
Students have been loaded on the buses and they have left campus. Bus 8 will have to circumvent water and could be held up later than the other routes
We are starting a modified bus loading process at this time. Thank you for your patience during today.
* Note*
District phones and internet connections are down at this time due to power outage.
All students have returned to campus. With the incoming storm front all Grandview buildings will be sheltering in place. Please do not come to pick up your students until after the storm has passed.
Happy School Nurses Day to our nurses who are wonderful, spectacular, wise, friendly, outstanding, and whatever positive adjective you would like to add.
To get ahead of the predicted storms today all field trips will be back on campus before noon.
The weather will be watched closely today and we are in contact with weather services at all times to stay informed of updates in patterns.
Any emergency situations or changes in schedules will be communicated with Eagle Nation immediately.
From Mr. Bilin: The Jr. High Concert Band and High School Concert Band attended the Trills and Thrills Music Festival yesterday and both received an "Excellent" rating. Although we got rained out towards the end, the kids had a blast.
Remember that in addition to this being the last week of student attendance for the 2023-2024 school year it is also a full 5 day week. We will have on-campus classes this Monday, May 6.
