Girls on the Run - Community Service Project
This year the Girls on the Run girls will be making fleece blankets to donate to Project Linus: an organization that provides blankets to individuals who are ill, experienced a trauma or are otherwise in need.
Students can help the girls raise money to buy the material they need to make the blankets by participating in Pajama/Stuffed Animal Day on Tuesday, May 15th. For $1 any student or staff can wear their pajamas and bring a stuffed animal.
Thanks for your support!

Kindergarten - Kindness Rocks Project
The Kindergartners are ready to kick off our kindness character trait. To show kindness all over the Greenfield community, we will be planting Kindness Rocks. To make this possible, we will need each student to bring in 1 rock to be painted. We are looking for small to medium size rocks and if you have extras, that would be great! Please take a look at this link below to see what we will be doing all over Greenfield. #maplegroverocks
