A special guest from Zimbabwe
Two of our staff members, Spanish Teacher, Cindy Frizzle, and Gr. 6 Social Studies Teacher, Bridgette Hartley, travelled with other Seacoast area educators on a professional cultural learning trip to Zimbabwe this past June. As a result of that experience, Sra. Frizzle and Ms. Hartley welcomed Olga Kunonga to GCS this week. Olga visited several middle school classes and provided our students with firsthand insights into Zimbabwe's traditions, history, and worldview. Her stories and experiences inspired empathy, global responsibility, and a sense of interconnectedness for our students.

Veterans Day Assembly
We are excited to host our 18th annual Veterans Day assembly in the GCS gymnasium on Friday, November 8th at 8:00 AM! There are different ways for our wonderful Greenland community to be involved:
1. Submit a Veteran’s picture using this form. If you submitted a picture last year, you do not need to submit one again this year.
2. Invite a local Veteran to attend our assembly and the GPO’s reception following the assembly. Please complete the form linked in #1 to help us get an accurate count of the guests we will host.
3. Students can participate in Hat Day on Thursday, October 24th! Donate $2 to wear a school appropriate hat. All proceeds will go to our school’s donation to The Pease Greeters for their care package program, which sends packages to local military serving overseas.
4. If you would like to make a separate donation to The Pease Greeters, please send in your donation with your student (cash or checks written out to Greenland Central School, memo line: Pease Greeters).
If you have any questions, please reach out to Suzanne Cohoon (scohoon@sau50.org). We look forward to honoring some of our beloved Veterans next month!
