Our annual Spring Book Fair was held last week and we would like to inform you that it was a huge success. There was over $3600.00 in overall sales. That tells us that there are a lot of great books in the hands of our students. Thanks so much to all of you who came out to support this year's fair!
May this weekend be filled with colored eggs, good laughs and memorable moments with family and friends. From all of us at Gretna Green Elementary, HAPPY EASTER!
