PRINCIPAL’S NOTE:

Happy New Year!
All of us at Greenfield High School are excited over the plans to build a new school in the near future. The architects have been meeting with staff and reviewing with us the needs and requirements for a 21st century learning facility. Over the next four months, we will be having public meetings to inform all residents of the plans. Please attend and bring friends and neighbors so that the facts of why a new school in necessary is spread to all voters.

With the beginning of the second semester, I would like to encourage you to stay involved with your child's academic progress. We will continue to provide afterschool study/tutoring for any students on Monday, Wednesday, and Thursday. A late bus is also available on those days to take students home. Please encourage your student to attend whenever they need extra support.

We will have many activities occurring over the next several months; the science fair, a wellness/fitness fair, and a blood drive. Our winter sports teams continue their regular season schedule in hopes of qualifying for the play-offs. Come out and watch a game and support these student-athletes.

Please pay special attention to the enclosed MCAS schedule. All 8th, 9th and 10th graders will need to be in attendance every day for the test schedule. Please plan appointments, and time out of school on alternate days to avoid testing issues

Please be aware of the school's attendance policy—students should not miss more than ten days in a semester in order to receive credit for the class.

Thanks for all your support in helping to achieve our first semester goals.
