🌺 Red Ribbon Week Continues! 🌺
Today we’re saying “Lei Off Drugs!” with our fun Hawaiian-themed outfits! 😎☀️
Don’t forget, tomorrow is “Shade Out Drugs” day, so grab your favorite sunglasses and help us keep spreading awareness for a drug-free life! 💪🕶️ #RedRibbonWeek #DrugFreeLooksGoodOnMe

Way to go to all our students and teachers who showed their spirit for the first day of Red Ribbon Week by wearing their favorite jerseys to stay drug free! 💪❤️ Let’s keep the fun going, tomorrow is Hat Day! Wear your favorite hat to show your support for living a healthy, drug-free life! 🎩✨

At Mary Grett, we strive to teach our students to find joy in helping the community in creative ways, whether that involves cleaning up bird cages at the botanical gardens or helping your friends cook pigs in a blanket.🌿🥖✨

We are sad to say goodbye to our wonderful administrative assistant, Celina, but we are so excited for her next chapter! Celina has supported every member of our team with patience, kindness, and incredible skill. Her dedication and warmth have made such a difference at Mary Grett, and she will be deeply missed by everyone. Wishing you all the best, Celina! 💙
