Principal’s Message:
Local news reporters, as I am sure most of you have heard, have been forecasting the repercussions of less funding for our schools. Nevertheless, I want to assure you that our Greenspun team is working diligently to find creative ways to continue providing quality education to our students, to retain all of our current staff, and to fund the various instructional programs, activities, and events that contribute to our students’ success.
The success of our students is our number one priority so when we hear the words, “budget cuts,” please know that our commitment to our students remains strong. We welcome your input as we continue to focus on our shared goal of providing a positive, enriching, and safe learning environment for our students.
Parents, please know that we also appreciate and value you as important members of our community. We welcome your support so feel free to contact me if you have questions or would just like to share ideas on ways we can improve our school.
