They are excited to share their fresh, school-grown lettuce with the cafeteria during the next harvest! 🎉
Friendly reminder there is no school for current Greenwood Students tomorrow, March 21st and Monday, March 24th. Enjoy the long weekend and we will see those bright, smiling faces on Tuesday, March 26th!
The 8th grade English classes with Mrs. Nastasi, Miss Amey, and Mrs. Freed studied folklore and created their own stories to share with Mrs. Bailey's elementary students this week. They wrote tall tales, fairy tales, legends and myths and designed their own storybooks.
FFA members had the opportunity to visit with Dr. Temple Grandin on National Ag Day. Dr. Grandin's work has revolutionized the livestock industry over the last 50 years and she has been a lifelong advocate for autistic and disability rights.
Mark your calendars for the return of our annual aluminum can drive! On April 16th, students will be sorting, weighing and disposing all aluminum cans that are dropped off at the front of our school.

We ask that you please bag only cans with pop-tops (ex. soda cans) and not foil, cat food or soup cans.
