A great opportunity for families of students receiving special education services to learn about what supports and services are available when preparing for life after high school.
Join us as we bring the excitement of extreme sports to our school with the Fox BMX Stunt Show! Led by professional BMX athlete Brian Fox—who has appeared in the X Games, Nitro World Games, and the UCI BMX Freestyle World Cup—this high-energy performance features jaw-dropping tricks and big air jumps that will keep everyone on the edge of their seats.
Along with the action, Brian shares inspiring messages about perseverance, goal-setting, and making positive choices. This event is fun for the whole family. Come out and experience the thrill while being inspired to chase your dreams!
Special thanks to the Greenwood Wildcat Foundation for making this opportunity possible for our students and community!
Our 8th grade English classes studied folklore and created their own stories to share with Mrs. Bailey's elementary students. They wrote tall tales, fairy tales, legends, and myths and designed their own storybooks. They did a fantastic job! Thanks to Mrs. Nastasi, Miss Amey, and Mrs. Freed for your hard work and dedication!

Our PTO is hosting their annual pop-top drive! Students are welcome to bring in aluminum can pop tops this whole month. This year we are working towards a school wide goal of 217 pounds of tabs.

Tired of eating ham leftovers, have a steak at Texas Roadhouse and support the DECA Business Competition Club. Show this ticket to your server on 4/8/2026.
First grade had another hands on garden lesson with Miss Mallory. This time, we focused on bringing our STEELS standards to life. Did you know plants utilize their external structures to help them survive? The first grade students created an experiment to test this theory! They planted tomato seeds in one garden bed, one greenhouse that will be in the shade and one greenhouse in the sun. As growing begins, they will observe the differences in plant structure and identify what plant has the most successful growing pattern and why!
Thanks to Miss Machorro and her Spanish II class, the MDS students decorated eggs as a fun way to celebrate the start of their spring recess.
Belco Credit Union graciously sponsored a Reality Fair for students from Greenwood and Newport. Greenwood's Personal Finance students selected a likely career path and then Belco generated an average monthly salary based on that path. Taxes, food, housing, clothing, loans, and other optional expenses were calculated as well as opportunities to save money and pay down debt. Each student worked through their own individualized simulation with the help of amazing community volunteers. Thank you to everyone who made this worthwhile event possible for our students.
We are seeking reliable and compassionate substitute nurses (LPN or RN) to provide coverage in the public school setting. Assignments may include working in the health room at the elementary, middle, or high school level, as well as accompanying students on field trips. For more information visit our district website and click on the employment tab.
First grade worked with our garden specialist, Mallory, to explore what it means to compost. We decided what we could and couldn't compost. Then, we looked at material that was put into our garden compost to see if it has changed into soil. After, we filled our classroom compost bins with material to watch decompose.
Our 5th grade students have been learning about cells in science class. After presenting their cell models, each student chose an organelle and created a poster analogy in writing class. Here's a peek at their "Cell Selfie" project displayed in the fifth grade hallway!

Last week, when the weather was beautiful, our elementary students took full advantage of it during a "School-Wide Get Outside” event! ☀️
All students in grades K–5 spent time outdoors enjoying the fresh air. Some students chose to play and be active, while others continued their learning in an outdoor setting. It was a wonderful opportunity to mix fun with education and make the most of the sunshine!
Of course, this week reminded us that it is still early spring—bringing back the cold, gray, and unpredictable weather 🌧️❄️—but we’re so glad we made the most of those warm, sunny moments while we had them! We had a great time and look forward to more days like that ahead!
