In order to ensure safety of parents, students, and staff the Grandview R-II School District will have AMI Day 4 tomorrow, Friday, February 16.
Due to mechanical issues students who ride bus #5 will be dropped off by a different vehicle and possibly a different time.
Ms. Anderson will retire this year. I was able to sit down with her a while back and get her thoughts as she looked back at her time at Grandview. The link below will lead you to the result of that conversation.

The school calendar approved in March erroneously marked March 25, 2024, with an X, indicating it would be a day when school would not be in session. Hours for that day were included in the total amount turned in to DESE for the school year. The loss of those hours would cause us to go below the minimum required by DESE guidelines. Therefore, during last night's meeting, the Grandview R-II School Board approved a measure to amend the 2023-2024 school year.
Monday, March 25, 2024, will now be a day of school attendance.
This error was just recently noticed, and we wanted to get it corrected early. The amended calendar can be found by following this link: https://5il.co/27hsz or on the District website.
CTA will be hosting "Grandview's Trail of Terror" on October 20th on the trail behind the elementary building. We are in immediate need of volunteers to help create scenes or work as spooky characters the night of the event. This event will be held next Friday, October 20th so we are short on time! If you are interested in helping as an actor with a scary scene or character or if you are able to let us borrow any Halloween decor for our event please fill out this form and a CTA member will be back with you ASAP!
