Dear Parents and Students, This upcoming school year, the Griffin-Spalding School System will introduce a new app called Rank One for all athletic programs. Through this app, you can upload your child's current physical examination and complete all necessary eligibility forms. When uploading the physical examination, please ensure that both the history form and the physical examination form are filled out completely. There should be a total of four pages: the front and back of each form. Hard copies of physical exams will no longer be accepted. All forms for eligibility must be uploaded and completed on Rank One. To find your child in the Rank One app, click on the "Parent" link, then select "Online Forms." Choose "Georgia" and "Griffin-Spalding County Schools," determine how to access Rank One, and enter your child's school ID number or name. Here’s the link to the app: https://rankone.com/, and a helpful attachment is below. Once complete, you can upload forms and finish the necessary documentation. For questions or concerns about the app, contact Rank One at support@rankone.com or 888-544-3637. Additionally, this app will facilitate communication between coaches, players, and parents. It will also include practice and game schedules. Thank you! Coach Wilder Instructions on submitting forms: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1x54Do2vmmS59Vpdij4Kabe_wKfakaCNj3vi5QCz_nMs/edit?tab=t.0

Dear Parents and Guardians, At Kennedy Road Middle School, we know how important it is to celebrate milestones with the ones we love. In light of Griffin High School’s graduation taking place on Thursday, May 22, 2025, we have decided to move our 8th Grade Honors Night to a different evening. New Date: Wednesday, May 21, 2025, at 6:00 p.m. We understand that many of our families may have students or loved ones graduating from high school, and we want to ensure you can be present for both special moments without having to choose. Thank you for your understanding and flexibility as we make this adjustment to support our entire school community. We look forward to celebrating your child’s achievements with you! Warm regards, Robyn Davis Principal Kennedy Road Middle School
