From the Principal: 12/6/21

Dear Greenwood Families,

Happy Monday!  I know I’m always saying what a busy time it is around Greenwood, but that’s because it’s true!  Everyone came back from the Thanksgiving break ready to dive back into both the business of school and the joy of spending time together to learn new things.  There is never a dull moment!

Lost & Found

Has your child lost something?  Because we have definitely found A LOT OF THINGS!  Our lost & found is overflowing with sweatshirts, jackets, shirts, and hats, and we’d really like to reunite items with their owners quickly.  If you’re looking for a specific item of clothing and would like to drop by to go through the bin, please reach out to Mrs. Paiva and set up a time.  We will also be setting up tables outdoors at arrival/dismissal (weather permitting) a couple of days during the week of 12/13 so that families can take a peek - more details on that in the next Gator Tales.  Any items not claimed before December break will be donated.



4th Grade Families - Class Photo Information

Any 4th grade families that previously placed an order for the 4th grade class photo will be receiving a copy this week.  If you did not order one, it’s not too late!  Please contact O’Connor Studios at 978-640-6250 to do so.
