Grandview R-2

Due to impending inclement weather, the Grandview R-II School District will not meet on campus Wednesday, February 2, or Thursday, February 3. These will be considered AMI days. Packets of assignments were sent home recently and will be collected and graded when school resumes.

Grandview's COVID positivity rate has dropped below 2% and per the newly approved guidelines, there will be no mask requirement for any building on campus. Remember, the federal mask requirement for buses is still in effect.

During Thursday night’s meeting of the R-II Board of Education, an updated COVID-19 plan was unanimously approved. The new plan lowers the days a COVID positive student or staff member must isolate from school from 10 days to 5 days. The staff member or student may return to school on the 6th day and, as long as she/he is symptom-free, will not be required to wear a face mask. If she/he has COVID symptoms a facemask will be required for days 6 through 10. A copy of the plan can be found by following this link: https://5il.co/14le4

Mr. Zoph has posted his new monthly Superintendent's Report. You can view a stored PDF of it by following this link. https://5il.co/14m1l

All Grandview buildings are now above the 2% threshold for COVID-19 positivity and, in following the approved COVID-19 plan, all students, staff, and visitors to all district buildings will be required to wear facemasks starting Friday, January 14. This requirement also extends to spectators of after school activities i.e. games and will continue until the positivity rate drops below 2%. At that time another message will be sent out to communicate that information.

Active cases of COVID – 19 have exceeded the 2% threshold in the Grandview R-II High School building. In accordance with the Board-approved COVID -19 Plan starting tomorrow, Thursday, January 13, high school students, staff, and visitors will be required to wear face masks until the positivity rate decreases to a level below 2%. Note: This pertains ONLY to the high school building

Smiles to go will be on campus February 8, 2022 seeing students. They will be parked and set up close to the bus shed. There is a PDF option at the bottom of the online form if you prefer to print it, fill it out, and send in a physical form. For any questions or assistance your building nurse will be happy to assist you. https://jeffcohealth.jotform.com/212355327744052

Grandview R-II School District administration has been alerted to a social media post on TikTok that appears to be a vague, generalized threat against all schools in the United States. The TikTok post threatens violence at schools on Friday, December 17. To our knowledge, NO students in the Grandview R-II School District were connected in this post.  These social media posts did not indicate a direct threat against any particular school district, nor is there any evidence that linked Grandview students to the social media activity. We take school safety and security issues seriously and we will continue to partner with districts and law enforcement entities to uncover all who are responsible. Please reinforce with your children that all threats, whether serious or not, are a crime and will be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law as well as district policy. As you know, keeping our students and families safe is everyone’s responsibility, and we appreciate the support and cooperation of all of Eagle Nation.
