Parents of Grand View Students:
1. When checking out students from school, please arrive at the office no later than 2:45 which gives the office staff time to locate and check out students. If you are later than 2:45, you will need to wait in the parent pick up line for dismissal.
2. Once students are dismissed you must wait in the car line for a teacher to walk your child to your car.
3. All after school changes need to be called in before 1:45.
4. Please keep in mind that checking out a student before 3:00 reflects on his/her attendance records. Early checkouts and tardies count as missing a part of the day.
Thank you for your cooperation.
