We are aware of the Alma emergency alert notification difficulties, and Mr. Britton has had many discussions with the company.

We have been assured that things have been fixed, so we want to test the system.

Please be aware that we will be doing an emergency alert test on Monday at 2:00.

Remember - Please remember to listen to or read the emergency alert. Please do not call the school. In the case of a real emergency, we do not want to jam up the phone system.

Please go to PaySchools to pay any outstanding accounts.

All items ordered through the Kid’s Café will be charged to your child’s PaySchools account.

The Grantham meal program operates like a debit account. Parents deposit money into their

child’s account either by writing a check or by using Payschools.com (instructions on GVS

Website; please contact frontoffice@gvshawks.org if you need your child’s School ID). Meals

and milk are deducted from the account when your child checks out at the counter.

• Please make checks payable to Grantham Village School. Checks are preferred

over cash. If you are sending in one check to pay for two or more children, please

indicate how you would like the money divided.

Any questions or concerns can be discussed by calling Grantham Village School

(863-1681 ext. 1090) or sending me an email (dbailey@gvshawks.org).

Applications for free and reduced lunch are available throughout the year. You can request

one by calling the school at 603-863-1681.
