Student Positive Test Reporting Form
Arrival Information
Do not drop off students prior to 7:30 am
Use the car rider drop off in the morning.
7:30 am - 7:55 am Morning Car Drop Off - TWO LANES, Unassisted and Assisted Drop Off Lines. See map below.
7:55 am Staff and Ranger Car Rider Assistance ends.Please note, in the past we have allowed drop offs on the bus/daycare loop after 7:40am. With the adjustments to the car drop off, and our increased bus and daycare traffic, this is no longer faster.
It is recommended you use the regular car rider drop off with the new unassisted and assisted drop off lines that are much faster and safer.

Wise Wednesday
Dear Parents,
As your school counselors, it is our responsibility to expose students to a variety of career pathways and educate them about the opportunities available in Humble ISD. We invite students to wear college shirts, military, first responder, or any t-shirt that represents their future career each Wednesday for “What do you want to be Wednesday”. The focus of Den Time each Wednesday will cover one of the four High School Endorsements. An endorsement is a broad area of study that a high school student chooses in addition to the (FHSP) curriculum requirements. For more information about endorsements click here.
The first week of each section will introduce the Endorsement. We would love for our parents to be involved in this exploration by recording a brief Flip Grid stating their name, their career, and a one sentence description of their career. Also, feel free to shout out to your kids! You can make your video fun by including your uniform, office, or a special vehicle you drive! These videos will be shown at the beginning of Den Time during the introduction week for each specific endorsement. Visit www.flipgrid.com and type the appropriate join code listed next to the endorsement below. Click join with guest password is Grizzlies21

Join PTO and party fees
Party Fees:
Please pay party fees between now and September 30th. The grade that has the most party fees collected gets popsicles on October 1st!! For families new to the Groves, each class will participate in seasonal parties in their classrooms. We do not ask for donations of food, drinks, crafts, games or prizes at party time...instead we ask parents to contribute $15 per child at the beginning of the year and let the room parents do the rest! Party fees can be paid at:
