SAVE YOUR SPACE - ENROLL NOW
A Message From the Grace Business Office
A great big thank you to the parents that have re-enrolled your child and dropped by to pay the re-enrollment fee. Re-Enrollment for the new school year is moving right along and re-enrollment is looking very good.
Just a note: If you have a credit card on file in the business office to automatically debit for your school fees, we WILL NOT debit it for your child's or children's re-enrollment fee unless you call or send in a note giving us permission to do so
SUMMER CAMP INFO is here!
JR CAMP CALENDAR (entering Kindergarten in the fall)
SUMMER CAMP (entering 1st - 9th grade in the fall)
Attention all Grace students, families, friends, staff and church,the 7th-Grade Class is working to earn money for their 8th grade Washington DC trip! And we need your help and participation!
Not only will you help the 7th-grade class, but you also RECEIVE great products and fun gifts in return. It makes easy gifts for MOTHER’S DAY, FATHER’S DAY, TEACHER GIFTS, BIRTHDAYS, CHRISTMAS, etc.
During this next week, go to www.mixedbagdesigns.com/grace-christian-church-and-schools to browse the Mixed Bags website and order online. Use the FUNDRAISER ID: 42364. 7th graders will earn 40% of all online orders.
Teachers/ Grace Staff—we do not want to bombard you with each student asking you to buy something. So, again we made it easy. Any items you buy will go towards the 7th-grade class pot that the students have been working to build since the fall.
On behalf of the 7th-grade class and to those who have already supported the 7th-grade class, THANK YOU!! THANK YOU!! THANK YOU!!

Family Service Hours Opportunities
A little help, please!! We have several opportunities if you would like to get some of your service hours out of the way.
- Monday and Tuesday, April 15th and 16th, our maintenance staff will be painting in the gym. As the gym is so large, we could really use some help. If you have the time, come for as long as you can and help us beautify our gym.
- We need someone that can come for perhaps a ½ hour each week and tidy the resale clothing items, ensuring they are in the proper containers. You can choose the day and time as long as it is during the day when the Teacher Mail Room is open. It is always a bit untidy and we need help. Let Deborah know at djackson@gracelcms.net
- On May 29th we are having an all school BBQ. We need grillers and helpers. The grillers will be needed from 11:00 AM to 1:00 PM. The helpers will be needed from 11:15 AM to 1:00 PM. If you can help on that day, please let Gena Keenan know at gkeenan@gracelcms.net

Five Technology Rules Every Parent Must Follow (From Tim Elmore)

What she discovered made her feel betrayed. Read more HERE
