Dear Members of the Grady Elementary Community,
Thank you for a fun and exciting school year. It has been the pleasure of our PTA board to serve the school and to help our members enhance the educational experience of all Grady Elementary students.
One more message about yearbooks. There are still a few yearbooks available for purchase, first come first serve, for $25 each. If you are interested in buying one, please go to the front office.
Also a quick message about magazine renewals. If you have magazines that you would like to renew (whether you subscribed to them during the Fall Fundraiser or not), you can renew your magazine subscriptions and still support Grady at the same time. If you go to this website, http://gaschoolstore.com/
This is the last Grady PTA email to the members of the 2013-2014 PTA. If you are interested in staying on this email list for the next year, please send a return email to me, VP of Communications, Ellen Lyons, at GradyPTACommunications@gmail.
If your students are returning to Grady Elementary, we hope you will rejoin the PTA, and we will see you at the Grady Elementary Open House on Friday, August 15, from 5:30 pm to 7:30 pm. We hope you have a safe and happy summer!
Sincerely,
Grady Elementary PTA
