Booster News

The Health Occupations Students of America (HOSA) is sponsoring a fundraiser
for the St. Jude's Children's Research Hospital.  We have collection
containers in each homeroom. If anyone would like to support St. Jude with a
donation, please make the check payable to St. Jude and send the check to
Grady by your child or by mail to Grady High, 929 Charles Allen Dr.,
Atl.30309.  If mailed please make it to the attention of Mrs. Ukah (HOSA
advisor).  Your support is appreciated. Thank you.

Hi Terry - sorry I didn't get this to you before the Gram went out - the
football play-off game is scheduled for Friday, Nov, 22 vs. Greater Atl. Christian at their field at 7:30.   Crim forfeiting their games really messed us up - we were in a tie with Blessed Trinity and would have been in second place alone after last night's win, but the forfeiture gave BT another win that gave them second place.  It would be great if you could send out a special gram so that people know about the game - we really need a lot of Grady fans to come to the game - we are probably going to get a
"real" bus for this game for the students - more later - Thanks - SC
