Welcome to Grissom Memorial Elementary

Message from the Principal — Mrs. Pamela Necessary

    Grissom Elementary in Muncie, Indiana is both a place of learning and a place of growth.  It is more than a building, more than desks and chalkboards, and more than the principal, teachers, and students that fill its hallways.  Grissom Elementary is about something that entails and yet extends beyond all of these.  Something happens in our school that happens no place else in the world.
  
    We are fortunate to have parents in our community who are very involved and supportive of their child's education.  We have enthusiastic, highly capable students who are ready to learn and we have highly-qualified, experienced teachers who are experts in elementary education and child development.  We also have support staff and an administrator who care for students, parents, and teachers in ways that foster the most effective educational environment possible.  

    As each person, child or adult, walks through the door at Grissom each day, they carry with themselves expectations, goals, fears, apprehensions, ideas and hopes for that day.  The "miracle" that occurs in how these differing ideas of each individual meld into a collective school spirit and pride will help us all to "move onward and upward" during our school year.

    Please take time to review this website and look at the updated information.  Many of the documents that were only available as paper copies are now online for your convenience.  Join our "GRISSOM ASTRO PRIDE."
