FROM OUR PRINCIPAL
Dear Greenfield Family,
It was such an honor to recognize our First Responders this week! At GCS, we have the unique opportunity to pray for our nation and to teach our students to do so as well. The day started with an amazing school wide assembly where we covered our first responders with specific prayers thanking God for their bravery, praying for their training and preparation, for their safety, prayers for wisdom and emotional protection, and for their loved ones. May we never take that for granted. Please enjoy some of the pictures that captured the events of the day!
Impacting the world for Christ,

Picture Retake Day – September 30th
Picture Retake day is Tuesday, September 30th. If you purchased a package and want a retake, please have your child bring your package to retakes so the photographer can scan that package envelope which will automatically produce a new one for you with your child’s new image. If you did not purchase a package from the original picture day, your child can come to the camera to get a retake picture taken and will receive a new proof. If you missed the original picture day just come to the camera! Prek PM parents: If your child needs a photo taken, you are welcome to bring them anytime between 8:15am and 10:45am. Please sign up here if you are needing to retake. Picture Day Retake Signup
