Packets of assignments have been sent home with students. AMI Day 1 assignments will be collected for a grade when students return. If students do not turn in the assigned material they are required to be counted as absent with no grade.

This post is to inform the patrons of the Grandview R-II School District of an incident that happened at 2:15 today. A student unknowingly brought a weapon onto Grandview's campus. Administration officials as well as our school resource officer immediately investigated the situation. At no time were there any threats voiced and no one was in danger of violence. The Grandview R-II school district makes safety the highest priority of our students and staff and in that spirit, we ask for your assistance and diligence in ensuring that materials such as these are not brought to school in the future. Thank you for your trust and your cooperation in keeping Eagle Nation safe.
Reminder: Grandview R-II will be in session tomorrow, Monday, December 18.
The Board Meeting starting time Thursday has been pushed back to 8:00 pm.
