Monitoring Weather Conditions, Prioritizing Student Safety
Grundy R-V is closely monitoring weather conditions expected to move into the area this afternoon. The safety of our students, staff, and community remains our top priority.
District administration is actively communicating with transportation staff, as well as event sponsors to evaluate conditions in real time. At this time, student groups are participating in activities at multiple locations, including an FFA group in Columbia, Missouri, junior high and high school track teams in Chillicothe, Missouri, and yearbook students in the Trenton, Missouri area.
Any necessary adjustments to travel plans, event schedules, or transportation routes will be made with careful consideration and communicated promptly to families in real time.
We understand the importance of clear communication and will provide updates as decisions are made. We encourage parents and guardians to remain attentive to district communications through our usual channels.
We appreciate the cooperation and flexibility of our families, staff, and community partners as we work together to ensure the well-being of everyone involved.
For questions or additional information, please contact the high school office at 660-673-6511 or totto@grundyr5.k12.mo.us.

Preschool and kindergarten students explored creativity using paint dobbers to complete a spring bunny art project. Using a bunny template, students filled in their designs with colorful dots, strengthening fine motor skills and hand-eye coordination.
This activity encouraged creativity, color recognition, and pattern exploration while celebrating the joy of spring. Each bunny turned out unique, bright, and full of personality—just like our young artists!
