Here is a message for parents of those participating in the Mini Cheer Camp this week.
Hi parents,
Here is the schedule for the performance night.
Kiddie Camp Performance: October 7th, 2022
Time: Half-Time of Varsity Game
Arrive at 7:00 to pick-up t-shirts, bows, and poms at the announcer stand. There will be a table at which to pick them up.
An announcement will be made after the 1st quarter for participants to go with the cheerleaders.
** You are responsible for your child until the announcement is made and after the half-time performance
The theme is Monster Mash (Halloween). The shirts are orange and the bows are black. It will be chilly, so dress your child in pants and long sleeves (to wear under their t-shirt).
There will also be pictures with Eddie the Eagle at the game during the first quarter. They are $5 and proceeds go to the Middle School and High School Cheer squads. There was a form sent home today, but if needed, there will be extra forms at the game with the photographer.
Here there be ghosts.
Grandview FCCLA will be conducting a canned food drive at this Friday's varsity football game. Bring in canned food items to the game and receive a $1 discount for each item donated.
I would like to personally apologize for the display of the Confederate and political flags during this year’s homecoming parade. The flags were not approved in any way by the District to be used on the float and were only added after the parade had begun and administration had inspected all entries. As a district and a community we try to remain apolitical and welcoming to all. I am deeply disappointed that this happened. I personally addressed the issue at the end of the parade and we are investigating the incident further.
As always I thank you for your support of the Grandview R-II School District and to Eagle Nation in general.
Sincerely Yours
Matt Zoph, Superintendent of Schools
Grandview R-II School District
Eddie the Eagle aka Mr. Mothersbaugh greets the middle school student in style.

Due the cessation of federal monies concerning school meals Grandview R-II will once again have to charge for breakfast and lunch. Our goal is to provide excellent nutrition for your child at prices you can afford.
Please remember to fill out the forms for the Free and Reduced Lunch Program (https://5il.co/d3m7). In addition to helping to determine if you qualify for a break on school meals it can also help the district with possible funding from the state and federal governments
The Grandview R-II School District wishes everyone a happy and safe Fourth of July Holiday!
