Communications Protocol
Grand Rapids Public Schools takes pride in our customer service and responsiveness. To ensure our scholars, families, parents, guardians, team members and community members receive timely responses to any questions or concerns, we have developed the Communications Protocol to provide support with a step-by-step guide for who to contact about various matters.
If you have questions, concerns, and/or would like more information, you should start with contact person #1. If you do not get a timely response or the issue is not resolved, you then go to contact person #2 and so forth. Most parent, caregiver, and community questions are easily and completely answered by communicating directly with the educator in charge of the classroom, school building, or department.
