Eagle Nation,
Snow Day Makeup: School will be in session on Monday, February 24, to make up for the snow day on Tuesday, February 18. We wanted to get this out as soon as possible so schedules can be modified. The make-up day for today's snow day will be communicated out as soon as it is determined.
Questions about School Tomorrow: To prioritize the safety of students, parents, and staff, administration is closely monitoring district road conditions, as well as campus lots and walkways, to determine whether school will be in session tomorrow.
Basketball Update: Tonight’s basketball games have been canceled, and no makeup dates have been scheduled at this time.
Stay safe and warm, and we will update you as soon as possible regarding tomorrow’s school schedule.
Another Snow Day!
Eagle Nation, here we go,
The snow keeps falling, the winds still blow!
Tomorrow’s Wednesday, Feb nineteen,
Another snow day—stay safe, stay serene!
The flakes keep dancing, soft and white,
No school again—enjoy the night!
Due to the predicted winter weather and to ensure the safety of our students, parents, and staff, Grandview R-II will not have classes tomorrow, Tuesday, February 18. This will be a traditional snow day, meaning we will make up this day on a future Monday.
Stay warm, stay safe, and enjoy the snow!
