Grand Rapids Public Schools issued the following announcement on Dec 20.
Dear GRPS Families and Staff,
I am writing to share important information about student technology and the district’s office hours over the winter break.
Technology Home Over Break: We are asking that all students bring their technology (iPad / Chromebook) home with them over winter break. This request is being made as a precautionary measure if a student is required to quarantine after the break due to a close contact or positive COVID test or any other extenuating circumstances that may require students to work virtually.
We want to be clear that we are planning to be 100% in-person on Monday, January 3, 2022, but given these uncertain times, we want to be prepared for anything.
District Office Hours Over Break: The district’s main office at the Rev. Lyman S. Parks Administration Building (1331 Franklin St. SE) will be open to the public Monday, December 20 through Thursday, December 23 from 8:00am to 4:00pm. It will be closed between Monday, December 27 and Friday, December 31. All school buildings are closed from Monday, December 20 through Friday, December 31.
If you have any questions or want more information, please email communications@grps.org.
Thank you again for your continued patience, understanding, and support. Happy Holidays!
Sincerely,
Leadriane Roby, Ph.D.
Superintendent
