Greenwood School District

7th grade students raced their Matchbox cars in Science class to practice calculating average speed.

Sixth grade students modeled the moon phases to better understand and then explain how and why they occur.

Dalton Trude and Tyler Moffitt participated in the GIS Day at Harrisburg University. The students heard speakers from a GIS professional from the Philadelphia Police Department, a river level and flooding expert, and a geography professor and expert in emergency management from Bloomsburg University. They also had the opportunity to learn how to fly drones both indoors and outdoors.

Congratulations to these business students for competing at the DECA District Competition.

The Perry County Career Coordinators meet regularly to provide experiences for our students. If any of the upcoming events would interest your student, please have them contact Mrs. Brummer for more information. Also, a special thank you to our County Commissioners who are in the Spotlight for their consistent support of our students.

I can't tell you how many times I heard "Best lunch ever" today! Thank you to our friends from The Nutrition Group for bringing us this awesome home cooked Thanksgiving meal!

On November 12th, Grace Peters, Taz Dietz, Shelby Strawser, and Charlie Sheaffer attended the PA Restaurant and Lodging Association's Hospitality Career Exploration Workshop at the Lancaster Marriott. Students spent the morning at culinary stations where they got to make food under the direction of chefs and culinary students. They also participated in a workshop for event planning and got to network with industry professionals and learn about job opportunities in the region.

Our growing season is quickly wrapping up for the year here at our elementary school. Our first year was a huge success! We were able to harvest over 200 pounds of fresh produce! This graphic depicts exactly what happened from month to month and how your kiddo was involved. We are looking forward to our next growing season and cultivating nutrient rich soil through composting over the winter!

What are we doing today in 8th grade FCS?

Creating Creative Critters in FCS

7th Grade Social Studies just wrapped up their section on the Paleolithic Age with a fun, cave art project! For added fun, students were allowed to pretend their desk was a "cave" and create their art underneath their desks! Cool! Which is your favorite cave art?
