Dame Cécile Ellen Fleurette La Grenade, {{postnominals|country=GBR|GCMGf|OBE}} (born 30 December 1952) is a Grenadian food scientist who has been serving as the Governor-General of Grenada since her swearing-in on 7 May 2013.

Early life

La Grenade is the third of 5 daughters born to Allan A. La Grenade {{post-nominals|country=GBR|MBE}}, a civil servant, and Sibyl Sylvester-La Grenade, a registered nurse. Her maternal grandmother, Mary Louise "Eva" Ollivierre-Sylvester, was the first woman in the British Windward Islands to serve on the legislative council of her country, after being elected in 1952, less than a year after universal suffrage.

La Grenade is a food scientist trained in the United States. She holds a bachelor's degree in chemistry from the University of the West Indies, as well as a master's degree and doctorate in food science from the University of Maryland at College Park. Her appointment as Governor-General was announced during the same week as the death of Grenada's first female Governor, Dame Hilda Bynoe. Bynoe was the goddaughter of La Grenade's maternal grandfather, Dr Cyril I. St Bernard Sylvester, an educator and public servant.
