On Friday, Greenwood Rho Kappa students traveled to Kansas City to visit the Steamboat Arabia museum. The Arabia sank in 1856 in the Missouri River. Its immaculately preserved artifacts were excavated in 1988 and are housed in the museum. They toured the museum and completed a service project as the museum prepares to move. What a wonderful opportunity for our students!

Our Scholar Bowl Team competed in Fair Grove and our HS team placed 4th overall and Kai Gabriel was 2nd in the HS division. Our MS team placed 8th out of 23 and Ella Englert was 9th overall. Congratulations Scholar Bowl!

LET'S GO LADY JAYS!

Evelyn Jones is the Helpful Hedgehog of the Week! She brought her mom, Hiedi, to celebrate! Heidi is a pharmacist, and she showed the first graders how to identify medicine from candy, along with some fun science experiments!

Thank you to Evelyn and Hiedi!

Greenwood Blue Jays this past Saturday competed at the Regionals Science Olympiad competition at MSU. They earned 2nd Place overall in both middle school and high school divisions!!!

In total, our Greenwood Jays took home 115 medals from 56 events. From those medals, our High School division earned 11 gold, and our Middle School division earned 15 gold! So proud of all of those that competed!

Congratulations Isabel!

Pasta Bowl was on Friday. High schoolers, and especially seniors, had a great time!

Kindergarten field trip to the Discovery Center!

Students' 100th Day of School was on Friday!

Kindergarten through Fifth grade celebrated their 100th day differently.
First Grade Students celebrated the 100th day of school by dressing up like they were 100 or how they would have dressed 100 years ago.
Students took over the cafeteria where stations were set up and used a ten frame to count items, tally, and create a 100 Item Snack. The students also performed several challenges to see how many times they could skip, hop, Hula-Hoop, jump rope, do push-ups, bounce a ball, do jumping jacks, or run in place for 100 seconds! Stacking cups to 100 was a fun collaborative activity.
Thank you to Mrs. Montileone’s second block class for helping students count and move to stations. Students helping: Elle Stalzer, Evan Stalzer, Jarrett Mars, Matthew Monteith, Minh Truong, Gary Shi, Thomas Lin, and Gabriel Colvin.

Happy 100th Day!

Third graders enjoyed a Chinese New Year celebration thanks to Daniel Yang's mom! From a dragon parade to painting and delicious snacks, fun was definitely had by all!
