Thank you for Joining us at Drive Thru Trunk or Treat!
Thank you, thank you, thank you for your candy donations and for giving your time to make this a successful event for our students. Our staff certainly enjoyed seeing all of the costumes and smiling faces as you drove by.
Next year, we'll be sure to add dog treats to our shopping list for all of the furry friends that joined in the fun!
From the Principal's Desk
We are excited to see you next week at conferences! A few notes about conferences:
1. Due to time constraints, please be sure to arrive on time and end your conference at the scheduled time. This helps keep our conferences running smoothly!
2. If illness or another conflict arises, virtual conferences are available! Please contact your child's teacher should your format need to change.
As a reminder, there is no school for students next week.

GWE Book Fair
Guess what?! We're having a book fair! The Scholastic book fair is finally returning to Greenwood Elementary November 15th-19th. What a fun time for our students to select a new book to read. You can also shop online beginning Monday, November 15th and have the books delivered straight to your home for a holiday surprise.
Below is a link to the homepage for our fair. If you want to create a virtual wallet for your child to spend, you can begin setting that up on Monday, October 25th.
Picture Retakes
PICTURE RETAKES ARE NOVEMBER 11!
Greenwood Elementary will have Picture Retake Day on Thursday, November 11! You may want your child to participate in retakes if:
- you received pictures you weren't happy with. Simply send your child to school with the pictures you want to return, and we'll get new pictures taken.
- your student was absent on our first picture day. We want to be sure they can be included in the GWE Yearbook.
GWE Spelling Bee 2021
Participation in the spelling bee is not required. Please contact your child's teacher if you prefer they not participate in the spelling bee.
