Meals will NOT be free this year. Please see the district link for Sodexo to apply for free or reduced meals. The method of payment for meals is through MySchoolBucks. Guardians set up an account and put money on it, students code in their student identification number at meal time and the cost is deducted from the account. Please see the site above for more information about MySchoolBucks and to see our district policies about meals. Keelonda Brown, the School Meals Advocate, can be reached at 821 3010 if you have any questions.
Arrival and dismissal at Greenbush can be a long process that we work to improve every day. Here are a few steps that you can take to help us be more efficient:
Consider having your child ride the bus
If you are dropping off, please make sure your child is ready to exit the car quickly with materials ready to go. Staff will assist with getting them safely on the crosswalk.
At parent pick up/dismissal, come with a sign with your child's name, grade and teacher to show the staff
Make sure to ALWAYS have a photo id ready, even if you know the staff
Families are welcome to begin lining up outside the building for dismissal after 2:30
We suspend dismissals from the office from 2:45 - 3:15 unless it is an emergency. This allows staff to focus on dismissing all of our students safely.
Note that any student who is dismissed prior to 2:55 will be considered an early dismissal.
Student class placements are now accessible through the Aspen Parent Portal. See the link on how to Activate your Aspen Account . If you are experiencing difficulty with accessing your account, please reach out to the office staff for support.
