Course Review Process:

  • Students and parents can request a schedule review for a CORE course placement using the form at the link below.
  • Course reviews will take place after final grades and state testing scores are released in June.  Decisions to change placement will follow the course progressions and will be communicated over the summer.
  • Students and parents will be notified by July 1st if the course review was approved or denied. 

Rising 7th and 8th Grade Parents:

Elective selection is live and will close February 27th. Students will choose their electives for the 24-25 school year in PE the week of February 20th. There is a short elective video posted below that highlights our elective selections and there are handouts posted below with elective selections and explanations listed. Students will use the link on the handout to select and rank their preferred elective choices.

Things to keep in mind:

  • Every student will have P.E. in his or her schedule unless a parent signs a waiver for the student to be excluded from P.E.
  • You can select a semester of PE if you do not want a full year.
  • Semester electives get placed if you do not select a yearlong elective.
  • Applying for these courses does NOT guarantee placement. Core classes scheduling and elective teacher recommendation are considered.

From The Front Office

Drop-Off Items

All items (clothes, shoes, monies, keys, books, etc.) Must Be In A Bag (except band instruments, homework and lunch boxes) labeled with the student’s name and grade.

Thank you for your help with this!

Early Check-Out

If you need to take your student out of school early, the latest time that he/she can be picked up is at 1:20PM (12:20PM on Wednesdays). Only parents, guardians, or other individuals identified on the student’s contact list, with appropriate identification, will be allowed to check-out the student.

Food Policy
Stingray families — Parents will not be permitted to drop off food from outside sources to their student during the school day. This includes all fast food/restaurant meals. 

School Clinic
If your child calls or texts you from their phone/watch and states they are not feeling well please request they see the nurse. From the clinic we can discuss next steps on your child’s return to class or pick up from the clinic.

Information Changes

It is imperative that parents call the school to change home phone numbers, cell numbers, work numbers and email addresses as soon as they are changed. In an emergency situation, it is difficult to contact parents when the information provided is not correct. Please contact Ms. Greve with changes.

                                                         Personal Checks
Notice regarding payments to GRMS via personal check: Checks MUST include your full name, street address, TWO phone numbers, and your driver’s license number.

Tdap immunization is required for all 7th graders

Proof of this immunization on the DH 680 form can be brought to the front office, faxed (904-547-8715), or emailed to Ms. Greve even if your student is still in 6th grade. Per district policy, all 7th grade students are required to submit an updated DH 680 form to include Tdap prior to the start of 7th grade. Failure to provide updated immunization records will delay your child’s start date.
