A photographer from Strawbridge Studios will be at Grady on 9/18/2025 to photograph fall school pictures.

This link will allow parents to sign up to receive email updates about your child's school portraits after picture day. These emails are sent to announce important things like when images are ready for viewing online, when novelty items are available for purchase and when new deals and promotions are being offered. When entering student information, parents should be sure to enter the student's name as it is on file at the school.

After school enrichment clubs will be back this fall! Clubs will run on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday from September 8th through November 13th. Registration will begin on 8/25  More information including club vendors and schedules coming soon.
