• April 22 is Earth Day 

    We would like our Grayson Elementary School Community to get in the green mindset and celebrate Earth Day!

    Here are some classroom and family friendly activities you can participate in for Earth Day 2019:

    1. Cut your carbon footprint by riding the bus, walking with an adult, or carpooling to school on April 22.

    2. Bring in one piece of great condition clothing for our clothing drive. GES will have a clothing collection bin in the front lobby on Monday, April 22. Great-condition clothing will be donated to the Salvation Army. There, the clothing is sorted, priced and placed on the sales floor for secondhand shoppers to find.

    3. Bash the Trash! As a family or classroom, pick up trash around Grayson Elementary and our community!

    4. Wear Green on Monday, April 22 in honor of Earth Day!
