Greenfield Elementary

First Days in First Grade are for friends, fun, and learning about each other and ourselves! -Mrs. Vesey’s class-

Today was a great first day of school! We are already anxious for tomorrow to begin! The students and teachers were all very joyful as they spent time learning about each other! We will continue to work on classroom and school rules and procedures that will ensure we have an excellent year! Don’t forget to wear your purple and gold in support of our varsity football team who will be playing their first game at Adena tomorrow evening.

Tomorrow, the majority of our students will begin their first day of the 2022-2023 school year! This year our night before school story is the 2020 picture book written by Shannon Olsen, Our School is a Family. Please visit our Greenfield Elementary Facebook page to listen to our Assistant Principal, Mrs. McNeal read the story! This school year will be filled with wonderful learning opportunities and memories for all students and staff! See you in the morning!

Be on the lookout for free and reduced lunch applications to be sent home. Universal free lunch is NOT in place this school year. Even if you haven’t qualified for free or reduced lunch before, it is worth taking the time to complete the form. There can be benefits in addition to free meals for our district and for families! If you need assistance completing the application, we are happy to help! 😊

We just completed our 2022-2023 Open House! We would like to thank the GES PTO for providing refreshments this evening. We would also like to thank the local Cub Scout and Girl Scout organizations for setting up informational tables in our hallway. We are very excited to see all of our students’ smiling faces on Thursday morning!

We are excited to introduce our new GEVSD app! See the steps for adding the app to your device and keep up to date on everything happening in the district. We are in the process of syncing our district events calendar and a couple of tools, so please be patient as we continue to add new components and finalize the development process. #legacyofleadership #mcclaintigers

Here are just a few pictures from today as our team kicked off the 2022-2023 school year! It’s always a treat to start our opening day session with the McClain High School Marching Band and Cadet Corps. We are gearing up for the arrival of our students on Thursday! 💜💛 #legacyofleadership #mcclaintigers

It was such an honor for the work of our teachers and administrators to be recognized. We are very proud of them! https://www.timesgazette.com/news/67342/gevsd-shares-at-colorado-visible-learning-event

Information from the August 12, 200 6:15PM all-call: Good afternoon! We are looking forward to the first day of school next week! Students in grades 1-12 will begin on Thursday, August 18, while our preschool and kindergarten students will have a staggered start. If you have a child in preschool or kindergarten and are unsure of their schedule for starting school, please contact the school office where your child will attend. Our open house schedule for August 16 is as follows: Buckskin and Rainsboro Elementary - 5:00-6:00, Greenfield Elementary - 5:30-6:30, and Greenfield Middle School - 6:00-7:00. On that same day, from 5:30 until 6:30 in the Greenfield Elementary Clinic, Adena Pediatrics will be providing immunizations to students in kindergarten, seventh grade, and twelfth grade whose parents would like to take advantage of the optional opportunity. The annual Back to School Bash will be held tomorrow, August 13, behind the Greenfield Presbyterian Church beginning at 9:00AM. We appreciate the church organizing this event that provides an opportunity for our students to obtain backpacks and school supplies. We also appreciate those who donate items for the event. This school year, we are utilizing a new call system. The information from this call will be posted on our Facebook page and sent to families via FinalForms. If you don't receive the phone call, please notify the office of the building where your child attends. For staff members, please notify your building secretary. It is important that phone numbers are kept up-to-date as we will utilize our call system as we have in the past to share important information throughout the school year. See you soon! Have a wonderful weekend!
