From amazing band and strings concerts to a heartwarming Muffins with Mom, it’s been a week full of fun, music, and memories. And guess what? We’re not done yet!

There are still a couple of exciting weeks left, so make sure to check below so you don’t miss out!

GOOD TIMES AT THE DIAMONDBACKS GAME! GOOD TIMES AT THE DIAMONDBACKS GAME!

Our Gator Community rocks!

This week at Chandler Library, our AMAZING 5th grade students competed in the Regional Championship of Battle of the Books!
They represented Greenfield SO WELL, and we couldn’t be prouder!

A HUGE shoutout to Ms. Heather Meaux for dedicating so much time and effort—not only in running this event but also in being a mentor and constant supporter of our incredible students.

Way to go, team Greenfield!

Thank you for making this week so special for our entire team!

MUFFINS WITH MOM! MUFFINS WITH MOM!

Muffins with Mom is always a highlight as we head toward the end of the school year—and this year was no exception!

We LOVED seeing our Gators shower the special women in their lives with love (and muffins)! These sweet moments are what it’s all about.

A huge THANK YOU to our amazing PTSO and the awesome Dads who helped make this event so special. We couldn’t have done it without you!

A huge thank you to the Greenfield Jr FACTS class for bringing our first graders’ monster drawings to life!
