Principal’s Message:
One of the best things about being the principal of Greenspun Junior High School is meeting the elementary students who will be walking into our doors as sixth graders in August. I couldn’t keep myself from smiling as they filled the gym to get a glimpse of middle school life.
Hosted by our amazing Student Council, the GJHS band, choir, orchestra, cheerleaders, and colorguard welcomed our six feeder elementary schools for an hour of outstanding performances that showcased their talent and the many opportunities that our incoming sixth graders can be a part of at Greenspun.
I loved watching the awesome performances of our GJHS students, as well as, the enthusiasm and school spirit that the fifth graders displayed throughout the program. It’s moments like this that remind me of how precious our children are.
It made me proud to see what wonderful hosts our students were, and how well-behaved and receptive the little ones were to their soon-to-be upperclassmen. That is why I couldn’t help but smile!
A big shout-out goes to our GJHS students and to our feeder elementary schools. Thank you Bartlett, Cox, Gibson, Estes McDoniel, Nate Mack, and Kesterson. I appreciate what a wonderful audience you were, and I can’t wait to meet you in the fall!
