Please allow extra time for your child to arrive home on the bus. We appreciate your patience. 😊

We will be celebrating Red Ribbon Week next week at GMS! Students are encouraged to dress up for the daily themes!
Sixth grade students participated in a range of activities during the first quarter rewards day.
Hi-Y took a field trip to Paint Creek State Park for Make a Difference Day. Students worked with Army Corps of Engineers and Highland County Recycling picking up trash and cleaning trails. Students also got to listen to a presentation from Ranger Isaac Greene.
Seventh grade students had some different activities for end of the nine weeks reward. These students participated in the craft room for reward day. We made Sharpie tyedye t-shirts, bird houses, and painted stepping stones. A good time was had by all!
Mrs. Shrout's students continued practicing multiplication facts by completing multiplication wheels in teams today. We are almost experts at it, and the teams were very competitive.
Parent-teacher conferences are Wednesday, November 2nd and Thursday, November 3rd from 3:00-6:30. Please call the middle school office to schedule appointments!
Get ready! The Scholastic Book Fair is coming our way (YAY!). Choosing their own books empowers kids and inspires them to become Bolder, Prouder, and Stronger Readers. AND—as always—every book they buy earns rewards for our school.
Here’s what you need to know about the Fair, which will take place from Monday, October 31st – Friday, November 4th in the middle school library.
This year, say goodbye to cash and hello to eWallet—your child’s digital payment account. Before the Fair, set up eWallet for worry-free, cash-free purchases. Anyone can contribute! Share each child’s eWallet so friends and family can add funds and give your kids more books to enjoy.
If you can’t make it to the Fair, then shop at our school’s Online Book Fair. All orders ship directly to your home, and shipping is free for book orders over $25. Your online orders will also benefit our school.
Visit our Book Fair homepage to learn more and get started with eWallet and online shopping:

Information from the 10-12-22 all-call:
Good evening. This is Quincey Gray, Superintendent of Greenfield Schools. I wanted to take time to share some important information that we have recently provided to parents and guardians. A safety update was sent via FinalForms with copies being sent home with students as well. Please be sure to review the information at your convenience. Also, a document highlighting important upcoming dates was sent via FinalForms and shared on social media. Those dates are October 20, when there will be a two hour early release; October 21, COTA Day, when there will be no school for students; and October 28, when there will be a teacher professional development day with no school for students. October 20 also marks the end of the first quarter, and information about scheduling conferences will be sent home soon. We would love to be able to communicate with all of you during a conference whether it be face-to-face, by phone, or by email. Finally, McClain High School’s Opening Night, presented by its choral department, will be held October 15 in the McClain High School auditorium. There will be two shows - 2:30 and 7:30. The admission cost is $5.00. We would love to have people attend to support our students.
