1. The Athletic Department’s washing machine died during football season. Repairs are priced at $2000 and it would be better to replace with a new machine ($4000).  APS Athletic Department does not have replacement in its budget. Principal Dr. Murray does not have money for this item, but is doing research to find where it originated.  Perhaps his search can find a source within APS.  Anyone knowing of any others options please contact our Athletic Director Coach Slade, Football Coach Hill (404-853-4027) or Debbie DeMoss (404-872-0456).
2. Parents and staff want to improve the weight room currently located in the boys’ gym, on the gymnasium floor level near stairs to boys’ locker room and concession stand. Debbie DeMoss (404-872-0456) is gathering information about the possibility of relocating the weight room.  Grady security guard and long time fan, Officer Hoffman (404-853-4000) is working on getting new equipment.
3. Yeah! Jo Giardina has agreed to lead the Summerfest Parking Lot fundraiser.  He will begin organization and looking into improvement in January 2001.

Grady Student Government Association wants to improve attendance at basketball games.  There will be grade level attendance competition at these games: Freshmen –Jan. 9,  Sophomore – Jan. 19, and Junior – Jan.26.  Look for details to come.  A pep rally is also being planned.
