✨Celebrating School Counselors!
It is School Counselor Appreciation Week, and we want to take a moment to recognize the incredible impact our counselors have on students every day! 💙 They guide, support, and uplift our students every day!
✨ We are also fortunate to have counselors and other amazing professionals from outside agencies who provide additional care and resources to ensure our students’ well-being. These dedicated professionals make a lasting impact on our school community!
Thank you for all you do! ✨
For the third tournament in a row, Freshman Dexter Coston earned top individual player honors, leading all competitors at the LifeWay Christian Invitational by answering more toss-up questions than anyone else! With an impressive 52 total questions across three games, he outscored his closest rival by 11 points among 19 teams.
Dexter's first-game total of 25 correct answers may have set a new Greenwood Quiz Bowl record and would have been enough to secure a top-ten finish on its own!
This latest achievement adds to his streak as the top large school junior high player at both the Morrilton Quiz Bowl Invitational and the Guy Fenter Co-op Tournament. 👏
Despite only having three players at the LifeWay Tournament, Greenwood managed to advance to the round of eight quarterfinals as the sixth seed before falling to third seed Woodland of Fayetteville. Other Greenwood players were eighth grader Seth Fontenot, who managed to average an all-tournament-worthy five correct toss-ups per game, and seventh grader Gage Mooney who also contributed to the team score.
Join us at the PAC as our amazing musical theatre students bring the whimsical world of Alice in Wonderland Jr. to life!

Greenwood School District is deeply saddened by the passing of former educator, Mr. Glendall Black.
He dedicated 22 years of service to the Greenwood School District as both a teacher and administrator. Mr. Black retired from education in 2001 but is fondly remembered for his unwavering commitment to students and his love for the Greenwood community. Our heartfelt thoughts and prayers are with his family and friends during this time.

Greenwood's Sr. High team finished third at the Guy Fenter Co-op's Senior High Quiz Bowl Tournament. Team members were David Bronson, Michael Turner, Isaac Buzbee, Jess Henry, Gabriel Hensley, Ethan Shumate, and Bryson Cook. Gabriel Hensley and David Bronson were named among the top ten individual highest-scoring players. Greenwood player Christian Michael volunteered to play on a mixed-school team that was formed to make an even number of teams so there would be no byes. This “House” team actually finished fourth among the six teams and Christian finished as the eleventh-highest individual scorer.
Greenwood Public School staff and students participated in a "Hat Day" to assist East Pointe student Eva Ricketts with her Christmas wishes! Eva is battling significant health issues and was surprised and excited by the love shown by the Greenwood school community!
