Dear Gray families,
Welcome to November!
I want to thank our entire school community for supporting our families who are in need during this tense time. The recent collaboration and mutual support within our school community has been heartwarming, reassuring, and impressive. This profound sense of caring serves as an exceptional model for our Stallions to witness and emulate. We are here for all members of our school community.
Thank you again for your generous donations during our Stallion Trot! Equipment for our new soccer goals has been ordered. In addition to soccer goals, Gray will soon install our final pair of water fountains in the Annex. This totals 14 new filtered water fountains throughout our school buildings. These improvements came about through hard work, vision, focus, and dedication. Thank you to Friends of Gray for purchasing the goals and water fountains for our Stallions.
Families, please make sure to check Parent Portal for updates about student progress and reach out if you have any questions. Contact Mrs. Pappas if you need help setting up your ASPEN Parent Portal access:

Our next LSC meeting is on November 18th at 6:15pm. Preceding the LSC meeting will be the annual State of the School address, which begins at 5:45pm. We will review pertinent school information, celebrations, and our strategic plans. Please enter Door #14 if you wish to attend.
Cooler temperatures are on the horizon, please send students with appropriate attire for outside activities. Our Stallions will go outside when the temperature/wind chill is about 20 degrees or higher and safe conditions are present.
Safety is always the #1 priority at Gray Elementary. Please remember to be very careful, patient, and courteous during morning drop off and afternoon pick up. Please be especially cautious while driving and walking to school. We want everyone to be safe.
November 24-28th will be Thanksgiving Break and there will be no school on these days. We wish everyone a happy and rest-filled Thanksgiving Break. We hope you spend lots of time with loved ones. We at Gray are thankful for our amazing school community.
We are Stallion Strong!
Sincerely,
Dr. Kotis
