Dear parents/guardians, and community members, I first would like to thank you for all you do for our students, our staff, and our district! You all are truly amazing! I have posted this note in order to provide information about the time change of the homecoming parade. My hope is that this note will provide a better understanding about the time change and assist in answering some questions you may have. There were numerous circumstances involved that warranted the time changes made to the homecoming activities. This message will specifically addresses the reasoning for the time change of the homecoming parade. The decision to change the time of the parade was made collaboratively, and not specifically by my office, however I fully supported and continue to support this decision. Please know that having our parents/guardians and community involved, attending, and participating in school district activities is greatly valued and important not only to our students, but to all Grape Creek ISD staff, and myself. Please be assured that every effort is made toward accommodating for the schedules of our parent/guardians and community. Sadly, there are times when this is not a possibility. A scheduling conflict affecting a large group of our high school students surfaced during the planning stages for the week of homecoming. This group of students would be eliminated from the parade as well as other activities if a change was not made to accommodate them. While working toward a solution to ensure all students were given the opportunity to participate, it was discovered that a simplistic solution was not possible. A date change would cause at least one group of our students to be left out of the activities. The only viable solution that did not eliminate students from the activities was to have the parade in the morning. We sincerely apologize for any inconveniences this may cause. Your understanding and support is requested and greatly appreciated in our efforts to ensure that each of our students are given the opportunity to participate. Sincerely, Angie Smetana Angie Smetana, Superintendent Grape Creek ISD
