You may have noticed something new on the wall above the "buddy bench" at Canterbury Elementary on the west side of the building!
We are so appreciative to all of our "Founders of Fun" and are thrilled to be able to showcase the contributions made for this playground project!
We were able to raise these funds in a remarkable nine month period! With help from our playground vendor as well as our Greendale School District grounds team, we were able to make this dream a reality by the start of this school year!
THANK YOU to everyone involved with this incredible project. We are so thrilled to hear our students play, learn, and grow on this new playground equipment!!




Our elementary school Panthers are busy learning, growing and engaging this month! From fancy lunches, winter concerts and reading with our classroom buddies, to creating snowman cards and sharing our poetry with classmates, students are focused and having fun. Take a peek at these images from recent school activities. #LearnGrowEngageGreendale #CultivatingExcellence








The community celebrated the Greendale Marching Band's upcoming appearance at the Rose Parade with a special celebration on Saturday afternoon in the gym at GHS. The band performed the music from its fall field show, Snow Angel, and the selection it will perform on New Year's Day in the 5.5 mile parade in Pasadena, California. Standby for details and television broadcast information on the best way to see our students perform in the parade! Thanks so much to EVERYONE who brought coloring books to donate to Shriner's Hospital in California, and to our entire community for its outstanding support of the fine arts in Greendale. Our students are excited to share their Panther Spirit during the parade.
