Principal’s Message

Welcome Back, Greenfield Dolphins & Parents! We were anxiously awaiting your arrival, and we are so glad that you are here. This year, our theme is “Learning Is Our Superpower,” and we anticipate that all our little Greenfield superheroes will excel in math, reading and writing. Parents, we need your support in making this the BEST year that your child has ever had at Greenfield! If it is your first year with us, welcome, we are glad that you are here!

We would like to thank ALL those parents that came out for orientation , as you had an opportunity to meet all of our dynamic, SUPER teachers. If you didn’t have an opportunity to meet them, we look forward to seeing you next Thursday night at Open House. We will begin at 5:00—general meetings, and class visitations will begin at 6:00. Our meetings will be held in our school’s cafeteria. Looking forward to seeing you.

I look forward to a wonderful year, as we all build upon our strengths as super-heroes. We’re preparing our little ones for success in college and/or the work place, upon exiting high school. Yes, I have lofty goals for each and every Greenfield Dol-phin, as I know you do, too. If you should ever need any assistance in making this SU-PER school year, please feel free to call us at 739—5249.

In making this a great school year, we need to ensure that ALL our dolphins are in school and on time every day. This is a MUST if we’re to prepare them for academic success. Welcome Back, and I look forward to making this a SUPER year at Greenfield!

"We're here to help children succeed. It's that simple." Elaine Collins
