OCTOBER 2025
Dear Gray Families,
October is almost here! Autumn is upon us, and yes, it’s time to break out some cozy flannel shirts and start ordering pumpkin spiced beverages. This school year has been full of so many positives and we want to keep the momentum going! We are definitely living out our theme of Illumination and Enlightenment!
Please mark your calendars that October 27th is Parent-Teacher conferences. Parent-teacher meetings are core to a home-school connection that benefits our students. We want all families to attend conferences. Gray will offer virtual and in-person options. Conference hours will be from 11:00am-6:00pm and teachers will be unavailable from 3:15-4:00pm for lunch. Please make sure to check Parent Portal for grade updates.
During October we will have our 2nd annual Gray Elementary Fall Fest. Last school year Fall Fest was a huge success and we are looking forward to seeing our Stallions at the upcoming fest. We thank Friends of Gray for organizing this fun event. Fall Fest will take place October 16th from 5-7pm on the main playground. As usual, this event is for Gray families only and every student must be accompanied by their own parent/guardian to attend. Students may wear costumes to Fall Fest. Please be on the lookout for more information.
A new addition to Fall Fest this year is the 6-8th grade Social in the Upper Grade Gym from 5-7pm on October 16th. Middle school students get to have their own space to celebrate Fall Fest. Please be on the lookout for more information.
I want to thank parents for bringing children to school on time and for being such a supportive part of this school community. Seeing so much family involvement and presence every day is truly heartwarming. Keep it up!
We are Stallion Strong!
Sincerely,
Dr. Kotis
