Dear Greenwood Families,
Welcome back! I hope your time off was fun, relaxing, interesting, low-key....whatever you were hoping it would be! Personally, I enjoyed not caring about iffy weather forecasts, doing mid-morning (instead of crazy-early morning) rides on my Peloton bike, and keeping the alarm clock switched to “off” for a few days. Now I’m ready to dive back into everything Greenwood—I hope you are as well!

February flew by, and it’s time to start making lunch plans for March! Here is the lunch survey for March. Please fill one out for each child who will be taking a lunch on any given day.
