Greenwich High School Food Drive Honors September 11
GHS students held their annual Food Drive to honor the lives of those lost on September 11, 2001. With the help of the GHS Roots & Shoots Club and Heroes Club, students and staff collected non-perishable, non-expired food items. Donations were collected throughout the day and displayed in the middle of the Student Center as a memorial. All donations went to the Neighbor-to-Neighbor food pantry serving our community.

- An updated site-wide Remedial Action Plan (RAP) is being prepared and will be submitted to the CTDEEP and EPA in the fall of 2019. Regulatory review of the site-wide RAP and coordination with the regulators will occur throughout 2019 and early 2020.
