This week's Parent Newsletter is now available!

We are proud of how Eagle Nation responded to today’s situation. Our staff, students, and parents remained calm and worked together to ensure the safety of everyone involved. The quick actions of our transportation department and the swift response from local emergency services were very reassuring to know they will be instrumental in keeping everyone safe in the case of an extreme emergency. A former teacher that has worked in different districts calls Eagle Nation "Planet Grandview" because it is a special place with extraordinary people from top to bottom that can get things done like no one else can.

Buses are on their way.

Buses are loading now.

There is no danger to students or staff but due to an issue with the transformer feeding the middle school building we will be forced to dismiss at 12:00 pm today.

As a precaution, middle school students and staff were evacuated to the elementary gym the fire department was called and is on the scene.

Thank you for your understanding in this unexpected situation.

Due to complete loss of electricity in the elementary and middle school buildings we will be forced to dismiss at _______ today.

Remember the deadline to register for the Flu Vaccine Clinic is Monday.

There was a night of meetings in Eagle Nation last night. Two of the main meetings were the Staff and Community Forums with MSBA concerning the search for our next superintendent. The results from the various forums will be presented at the October Board Meeting on the 16th.

We’d also like to remind everyone that the Community Forum to discuss the qualities and priorities for our next superintendent will take place Tuesday, October 7, at 7:00 p.m. in the Board Room of the Fassen Building.

Your input is an important part of this process as the Missouri School Boards’ Association (MSBA) helps guide our district in the superintendent search.

Thank you for your continued support of Eagle Nation!

10/6 Elementary Newsletter

Grandview was notified today that one of our students in the elementary school has tested positive for Pertussis (whooping cough). This is a respiratory bacterial infection that requires treatment with antibiotics. Pertussis spreads through respiratory droplets released when an infected person coughs or sneezes. Parents should watch for a cold-like start with a runny nose and low grade fever which may progress to more severe symptoms, for prolonged coughing fits that may cause gagging, vomiting, or a distinctive "whooping" sound, especially in older children, and can lead to blue or red lips, difficulty breathing, or pauses in breathing, particularly in infants. Get tested for pertussis if your child has been exposed to someone with whooping cough and is displaying cold-like symptoms or if a cough lasts for more than 7-14 days. If your child tests positive, please notify the school nurse immediately.
