IMPORTANT INFORMATION FOR 8TH GRADE PARENTS

Our Class of 2027 8th grade students will be celebrating their middle school completion with a field trip to Urban Air on Monday, June 12 and the Booster Club needs parent volunteers to chaperone the event.  We will be forced to cancel the event if we don't have enough parent volunteers so we strongly encourage you to consider making it a memorable day for our 8th graders by volunteering your time.

To volunteer, please complete this form:  8th Grade Trip Volunteer Form

All parent volunteers are required to complete and submit a background check each school year.  If you haven't yet submitted a background check for the 2022-23 school year, please complete a form as soon as possible and return it to the Grissom main office with a copy of your driver's license.  Click the links below for a copy of the background check forms.
