The "Little Packet Pickup" station will be available from 3pm- 7pm Wednesday through Friday of each week.

Thank You, Greenwood Families and Community! Our service project was a success - we gathered over 300 lbs of hygiene products. Saturday they were dropped off for wildfire victims and evacuees in the Willamette Valley. Thank you so much for helping!

Hi All, We still have space for 8-10 pairs to sign up for the Parent Conscious Discipline class starting October 5th. We would like to have everyone signed up by September 25th.

100 lbs and counting... Thanks for all the hygiene product donations today, Greenwood! 1st Grade is in first place overall with 250 items...but other grades are not far behind. Remember all items must be in by Friday at 3:00. Drop off is available inside the front doors until 7:00 tonight and tomorrow as well. Also, grade level supply packets for this week are in the red packet station in the same location.
