Friends Both Near and Far Support KDS
For many years, DAR members, alumni, and friends have supported KDS and its students by directly donating supplies for the health clinic, school supplies, band instruments, classroom and art supplies, books, etc. And the 2014-2015 school year has been no exception. School supplies have been donated in abundance, new shoes have brought a spring to the steps of many students, the libraries have been enhanced by books thoughtfully chosen for students of all ages; just to name a few of the wonderful items provided by the friends of KDS from near and far.

If you have a "Did You Know?" article about KDS School, the Grant community, or the state of Alabama that you would like to share with readers of our monthly newsletter, submit it to Heather Green at hgreen@nehp.net. If you have pictures in a digital format that relate to the article, submit them along with the article. Many of our readers are new to the area and do not know the wonderful, rich history of KDS School and the Town of Grant. I am sure they will be enlightened with something that you know and take for granted that everyone else knows too. |
