Additional Back to School Info
Monday, August 10th, 2020
Dear Parents, Guardians and Students,
We hope this message finds you and your family safe and healthy! Throughout this week we will be sharing communication to help you remember that the next three days will be Grissom’s Textbook & Material Distribution. Please start the process by completing the survey below, and also by looking at the schedule to be informed about when you should arrive to the building. We need your help by completing the prior mentioned steps to make this process as productive and safe as possible.
I apologize for any confusion related to “Virtual Transition Week” for our new incoming students. The information we will be providing during this time will be coming through email. You do not need to do anything or go anywhere to receive this information. The purpose of these resources is to help students and families be more familiar with our staff and building as the school year begins. For example, I am including my introduction video in today’s communication in order for students and families to get to know me. Later on this week, we will be sharing other content which will introduce additional staff members.
Sincerely,
Jean Milfort
Chromebook and Textbook Distribution Schedule
Textbooks
With safety in mind, we have created a schedule for you to come to pick up your child’s materials. Please note, you will only be able to enter the building during your assigned time.
We recommend that one parent comes to pick up their child’s items. If needed, the student that attends Grissom may accompany that parent.
ALL individuals (parents and students) entering the building must wear a face mask or face covering and keep it on during their stay in the building, per the recommendations of the health department. You will not be allowed in the building unless they are wearing a face covering.
All parents, please enter through door C.
Students with the last name A-L will walk to the LGI to pick up materials.
Students with the last name M-Z will walk to the IMC to pick up materials.
All materials will be grouped individually for each student and sorted by grade level and color.
6th Grade - Green
7th Grade - Yellow
8th Grade - Blue
Once you have picked up your materials, you will exit the room and walk to the cafeteria to pick up your schedule and sign out your materials.
Please exit through Door A.
Chromebook Repairs and Technical Assistance:
Chromebook repair/concerns will not be available during material distribution days. If your student is having difficulty with logging into their Chromebook, the Chromebook requires repair, or if they need general Chromebook assistance, they can email our Grissom Building Tech, Robert Kowalinski at rkowalinski@phm.k12.in.us with any questions they have regarding Chromebooks, and he will be happy to assist them.
