Greenfield Elementary Gator Bite

Happy Friday, Gator Families! 🐊

It was so wonderful seeing so many of you this week during parent-teacher conferences! We loved getting the chance to share all the great things your Gators are doing in the classroom.

Fall Break is just around the corner!
A quick reminder: Friday, September 26th is a half day, with dismissal at 11:55 AM. After that, we’ll be off for Fall Break until October 13th.

We hope you have a relaxing weekend, and we can’t wait to see everyone back at the Swamp next week!

🔥 Things are about to get spicy at the Swamp!

Come join us on Wednesday, the 24th for the ultimate showdown —

The Gator Staff Wing-Eating Contest!

Will Mr. McGee, our reigning Wing King, keep his crown?

Or will someone else bring the heat and take him down?

It’s going to be messy. It’s going to be loud.

And it’s going to be a whole lot of FUN!

Don’t miss it — we’ll see you there!

Reminder!
Please do not drop students off before 7:45 AM.

If the Main Gate is not open, students may not be left on campus without parent supervision.

Thank you for your cooperation and help in keeping our Gators safe!

Hey Parents,

Just a reminder that hearing and vision screening will take place next week for Preschool, Kinder, First, Third and Fifth grade. If your child FAILS a screening I will call you and mail you a letter. If you do not want the screening done, please email or call me.

6th grade parents :

please send in those vaccine records IF your child has the Tdap and Meningitis vaccine. If not, it is needed when your child turns 12 or sign an exemption form. You have 14 days to provide the documentation after your child turns 12 or he/she will be excluded from school.

Don't Forget Your Student ID Badge

District-issued ID badges fulfill several critical functions for both staff and students. These badges serve as our primary security measure, enabling staff to quickly identify authorized individuals on campus.

It is essential for everyone to maintain their ID badge in good condition and display it visibly at all times to help ensure a secure environment.
