KELLY ELEMENTARY IS TOO COOL FOR DRUGS!

Kelly PTA joined forces with their Family Resource Center to support a Drug Free/Bully Free Lifestyle.  Each day this week students participated in Red Ribbon Week activities, and also made pledges to put a stop to bullying when they see it by telling an adult, and they also focused on Saying No to Drugs. In this picture each student was given a free pair of sun glasses and they collectively held up letters that spelled out KELLY ELEMENTARY IS TOO COOL FOR DRUGS!  Kelly's principal Kathy Gutzwiller says "Kelly students are so fortunate to have the support of their wonderful staff and parents".

Please join us at Gray Middle School on Saturday, November 7th for our 1st GMS Gators 5K walk/run! This is an event coordinated to get students, parents, and community members involved in a morning of physical activity and to help raise funds for our Holiday Program. The program assists students/families from right here at GMS who need a little help with holiday gifts this year. Last year, NJHS was able to raise money for twelve families and we are hoping to raise funds to help the program grow. Please help support your GMS community and make our 1st FUN walk/run a great success!  To get more information and to register click here.
