Congratulations to Grady Elementary for earning an "A" grade from the Florida Department of Education for the 11th year in a row! This is a wonderful achievement for our Grady students, teachers, administrators and parents.  

Volunteers are needed on Thursday, July 18th at 12:00 pm to sort the school uniforms that were donated by sizes. The donated uniforms will be available for families to pick up at Open House on August 9th. 

Please email Christine Diaz if you are able to volunteer. Her email is [email protected]. 

We are happy to announce that we are offering the SchoolKidz, School Supply Kit Program for the 2019-20 school year to make your back to school shopping quick and easy! SchoolKidz offers prepackaged school supply kits filled with the supplies requested per grade level (excluding backpack and nap mat). The kits will arrive to Grady with each student’s name and grade level prior to the first day of school. They will be distributed in the students' classroom during open house.

Schoolkidz Kits must be ordered prior to June 14, 2019. To order your kit, please go to www.shopttkits.com and enter account #36155. You will then be prompted to select the grade level your child will be entering in August 2019. The shipping is already set to Grady Elementary School and there is no additional fee for taxes or shipping to the school.

Please note that the kits only include the supplies listed under components/description, but you can add items for your student including a backpack, lunch box, nap mat, water bottles and food jars. You can also add donation items for your child's class including Kleenex, disinfecting wipes, hand sanitizer, copy paper and sandwich bags to your order.

We will have the detailed school supply lists posted online by next week.
