*PHONE LINES DOWN @ G-PISD* | Nov. 15, 2024 @ 9:30 a.m. Due to an issue we understand is impacting our local area, we?would like to inform you that all district and campus phone lines are temporarily down. While employees are connected via our internal (online) network, we cannot process inbound or outbound phone calls at the current time. Our vendor, Frontier, is working on a resolution and we are hopeful that phone capability may be restored sometime today. In the meantime, if you need assistance you can (1) visit a campus or district office in person; (2) reach out to any district employee via email; (3) send an email to communications@g-pisd.org?and include the SCHOOL NAME or specific department?you need to reach today; or (4) for urgent needs, calls can be made to the following district mobile phone that will be monitored only today and until standard phone lines are restored: 361.445.2162. There will be no change to the school day. Dismissal is scheduled for the regular times and bus routes will run this afternoon along the regular schedule. Thank you for patience and understanding, and thank you to all of our teachers and staff working to provide for our students all across the district. With appreciation,?G-PISD Administration
