Grissom Middle School opened in the Fall of 1975 and operates within a "middle school" format of student ownership by the adult staff. This involves the daily schedule, the building's assignment of instructional areas within interdisciplinary "Teams" and an expanded middle level philosophy evident in the curriculum and among all extracurricular activities. Grissom serves over 840 students at the sixth, seventh, and eighth grade levels within the eastern portion of School District 140, located in Tinley Park, Illinois. The 2000-2001 school year marked our school's 25th Anniversary.

Grissom builds its premise upon a platform of "Patriot Pride" in academics, activities, and athletics. We seek to involve as many students as we can and strive to provide as much support through adults as possible to enhance learning and enrich the daily school experience.
