Teacher and Staff Appreciation Week will take place from May 4-8 at Grady Elementary.  Through this week of events, we want to say to our teachers and staff, THANK YOU for helping our children bloom!

At Grady we have the most wonderful teachers, front office, custodial and cafeteria teams. To show our appreciation we have several events planned to honor our teachers and staff and we would like you and your child's help to make it unforgettable:

Teachers and staff will be invited to enjoy some coffee, tea and treats to kick off the celebration of all they do.  Coffee, tea and treats provided courtesy of Publix, will be served by the PTA in the office.  (Parents and students don't need to do anything on this day).

Tuesday, May 5 -- Flower Day. We will shower them with flowers. Students can show their gratefulness with flowers that are made with paper, home grown or from the store. Give them directly to the teachers and staff on Tuesday, May 5th.
