RE: Tornado Watch for North Texas
Many counties in North and Central Texas are under a Tornado Watch until 10 p.m. A tornado watch simply means severe weather conditions could possibly lead to the development of a tornado. Glen Rose ISD is monitoring weather conditions and is in contact with Somervell Emergency Management. Each campus has a well-developed, comprehensive plan to prepare for emergency response.
If a threat of severe weather is imminent, students will be sheltered in place at their respective campuses. No buses will be allowed to run until the threat of severe weather is cleared.
Thank you for your support. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me.

Turn-In Schedule
Friday, May 24 – High School
Tuesday, May 28 – Junior High
Seniors will be required to settle any accounts at the time they turn in the MacBook. Not every Senior will have money to pay for damages when they turn them in, so we are giving them the rest of the following week to settle up.
All other grades will not be asked for any funds when they turn in their MacBook, unless they know they will not be returning in the fall. We will be verifying they (students) have all their “stuff” and get a signature that shows they turned it in. Over the summer, we will be going over each MacBook and determining any charges at that time. Students will pay for any damages PLUS their insurance fee at next year’s pickup in the fall. They will be required to settle their account prior to picking up their MacBook.
If the damages are just cosmetic, there will be no charges. Basically, as long as everything is working and not falling off, we will fix everything under warranty, re-image, and they will simply pay their insurance fee to pick up their MacBook in the fall. Only true damages will be assessed. For the MacBook, that will be max insurance deductible of $30, everything else will be the price GRISD pays to get it fixed. Up-to-date price lists can be found at www.grisd.net.
Since we will be imaging every student MacBook, any files the students wish to keep must be backed up. USB sticks will work, but StoneWare would be the primary way to get their files backed up. Dropbox would also be a suitable solution, if the students do not have too many files. Email is a horrible way to back up files and is not recommended or supported by the technology staff. Use email at your own risk to backup files. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me at 254-898-3882 or by email at mccldo@grisd.net.
