Principal's Message
Today I was reminded that sometimes the unexpected moments are the most fun! I had the special opportunity to jump in and spend the first half of class leading a social studies class while one of our amazing teachers was participating in a planning meeting with a family. Without much prompting, our students jumped right into our impromptu dive into a discussion around 3 current event topics of the weekend - that they identified as important. They researched multiple articles on each, summarized the key ideas that were found in each article, identified questions that they still have after reading the articles, and then provided a brief summary of their learnings to their classmates. Our students are amazing learners and it is a deep credit to our teachers and the high expectations that they hold that our students could pivot so quickly, so smoothly, and so skillfully in an unexpected situation.
Learning like this happens every day at Greenfield High School. Our teachers are constantly revising and improving their practice and our kids are the ultimate beneficiaries. Thank you for ensuring that your students are getting here to participate in this learning! Our attendance was up in the month of March, and was up even in the week prior to Spring Break. Thank you for making daily attendance a priority and supporting our teachers by ensuring that your students are at school and ready to learn.
Since the beginning of March, we have been taking time to celebrate our students who are here and ready to learn each and every day. Each week we have randomly drawn one student from each grade level with perfect attendance and it has been exciting to call down our perfect attendance students of the week and see them smile as they select a prize to celebrate their commitment to being in-class and on-time each and every day. Please keep an eye out for more updates related to our attendance and in celebration of our students who are making attendance a priority!
Thanks for your partnership! As a team, home and school can do amazing things. We are humbled to have the opportunity to work with you and your children!
Hawks Fly High!

Mr. Todd Willems, Principal
