Your PAC needs you!
We are so lucky to have such a dedicated PAC, but to be honest we are struggling. We fundraise and apply for grants so we can do so many cool things for our kids. Some of those things include providing hot lunches, paying for skating days, funding things like new popcorn machines and sand boxes and even ski days for kids who otherwise can’t afford it. Without parent support, our kids options are limited.
PLEASE consider helping out. We only meet once a month, it takes around an hour. We desperately need parents to step up and help out as there are maybe 7 parents who do ALL of this. We also organize PARENT SOCIAL DAYS when we have the numbers!
Dates of next meetings are: December, 11, January,15 , February 7th, March 4th. PLEASE consider coming to help!
Thank you from your (very tired) PAC.

Principal's Message
Welcome back to another exciting school year at Greenwood Elementary School! We are thrilled to have all our students back and ready to learn! As we embark on the 2023-2024 school year, we want to emphasize our commitment to developing critical thinking skills through the lens of curricular areas in hands on ways.
We believe that fostering critical thinking skills is crucial in preparing our students for the challenges and opportunities that lie ahead. We encourage parents and families to join us in this effort by engaging in meaningful conversations with their children about what they are learning and how it applies to the world around them.
We also want to invite families to join our Parent Action Committee (PAC) to help with fundraising and school events. The PAC plays a crucial role in ensuring that our students have access to the resources and opportunities they need to thrive. We will be organizing several events throughout the year, including fun, learning adventures, field studies, open houses, and your involvement is essential to student’s success.
Finally, we want to stress the importance of family involvement in the learning process. We know that when families are engaged, students are more likely to succeed. We encourage parents and families to attend parent-teacher conferences, volunteer in the school, and participate in school-wide events. Your involvement sends a powerful message to your child that their education is a top priority.
We look forward to working together with our families to create a successful school year. Thank you for your ongoing support, and we can’t wait to see what students achieve this year!
Yours in education,
Ms. Angela Bragg, Principal
