Principal's Message

Dear Greenbriar West Families, 

We look forward to seeing you at Open House this Friday!  Please be sure to be in the classroom at the designated time for your grade level:

First and Second Grade  9:00
Third and Fourth Grade 10:30
Kindergarten                  12:00
Fifth and Sixth Grade      1:30

Also available during Open House:

If you pre-ordered a School Supply Pack, it will be located in your child’s new classroom along with the GBW Back-to-School folder and other important forms that need to be returned to school.  Please take the time to read the folder, as it is full of helpful information regarding attendance, transportation, school lunches, health room expectations, and other information.

Our Food Service Manager will be available in the cafeteria if you would like to add money to your child’s lunch account.  Breakfast is $1.75; lunch with milk is $3.25; milk is $.60.

The health room will be open for parents to drop off medications.

If you plan to drive your children to school, parents may complete a Kiss and Ride form and receive a car number to be used during school dismissal.  Please visit the K&R sign up table in the cafeteria.

PTA representatives will be available to enlist you as a volunteer and/or to register you as a member.  The PTA is a vital component of the success of GBW, and we encourage you to join!

Sincerely,

Patricia A. Granada, Ed.D.
Principal, Greenbriar West

Box Tops News!

We are happy to start the school year off with some exciting news: GBW parent Claire Maloney entered our school into the General Mills Paper Mate We Love Back to School Sweepstakes. Greenbriar West was selected as a Grand Prize Winner of 50,000 Box Tops - equal to $5,000! - and 1,760 Paper Mate pens. We are so grateful for Mrs. Maloney's thoughfulness and will put the $5,000 prize to good use at GBW. Thank you also to last year's Box Tops Coordinator Emily Youngs and this year's coordinator Shannon Stockton for organizing our Box Tops fundraising efforts! Go GBW!
