Attention 4th Graders!!! It is your turn for safety patrol!
Do you like volunteering for community service? Do you want to help keep the students at our school safe? Consider joining safety patrol!
We are searching for students who are interested in serving on our Safety Patrol Team for the spring semester. The first schedule will run from January 7-March 21, 2024. You should only apply for this position if you want to help keep Greystone safe and can commit to keeping up with this responsibility.
Cleaning out? Don't forget you can donate your clothes and shoes here!
Lost and Found Clean Out Time!!!
Please make sure you check the lost and found next week. Any items that are not labeled with a name and still remain after December 20th will be donated to our recycling bin. That gives us a fresh start for the new year.
Paw Point Store Donations Needed!
You know that little junky stuff that your kids LOVE and that you try to avoid. Those are the things they LOVE to purchase with their Paw Bucks at our Paw Point Store. If you want to order some things for us on Amazon or do a little shopping at the Dollar Tree or Five Below, we could use some donations. Please send any items to the front desk and we will add those to our store.
Students love balls, sticky hands, squishies, little games, fun pencils, yo-yos, key chains, slime, etc.
Thanks for helping us keep our students motivated to earn points by having items they want to purchase in our store.
