We are so excited to announce the roll out of our SECOND STEAM Day! The students will have the opportunity to grow their brains by creating, building, and playing through the use of STEAM! For our dreams to come to life, we do need a few items. We ask that you kindly donate the following items. We will run collections from now until May 16th.
First grade had the best earth day! Together we learned about how to limit waste by utilizing our food scraps to become fresh soil through composting. The kiddos then got the opportunity to create their own compost bag. They carefully balanced green and brown materials to ensure the productivity of their bag. They also added a worm to act as the decomposer. Later, we traveled to the high school to create mini greenhouses. We learned about everything that happens in the large greenhouse. We even got to plant our very own lettuce! This should be ready to harvest by the end of the school year.
Today, across the state, twenty-two FFA members were named as State Proficiency Winners. Two of these winners were from Greenwood! Congratulations, Emily and Drew.
