UPDATED: The 3rd and 4th Grade Parent Meeting is on Thursday!!!
Week at a Glance @ Griffis- August 28- September 1.
Reminders:
Our WatchDOG Kickoff and Grade Level Parent Meetings will be held in the Cafeteria.
Safety Reminders:
Please exercise caution and remain vigilant while driving near our school drop off and pick up locations around Griffis. We are grateful for Officer Galvan, staff on duty and our crossing guard Mrs. Pedersen. Let's do our part to ensure the safety of students, staff and parents. We also want to remind our families to always pick up and drop off students at Griffis and not use the surrounding neighborhoods as drop-off/pick-up locations.
Officer Galvan would like to remind parents while driving on surrounding city roads, that no vehicle shall be driven to the left side of the center of the roadway in overtaking and passing another vehicle proceeding in the same direction. Even though the Texas Transportation Code allows this in certain circumstances it is dangerous to do so. Vehicles turning into the back parking to drop off their children might not look for oncoming vehicles before turning.
