Superintendent's Message

Welcome back to another exciting school year! I hope this letter finds you rejuvenated and refreshed after a wonderful summer break. As we gear up for the 2023-24 academic school year, I want to extend my warmest welcome to both new and returning staff, families, and our wonderful community of Greenfield. Together, we will continue to build a strong educational community that fosters growth, achievement, and social-emotional success for all our students.

I am thrilled to share that our dedicated team of educators and staff have been hard at work preparing to provide an exceptional learning experience for our students. We have embarked on several initiatives and enhancements to ensure that our schools are safe, inclusive, and equipped with the resources needed to nurture your child's academic and personal development. This excitement and evidence will be revealed when you visit each of our campuses.

As we move forward, our primary focus remains on the well-being and success of every student. We are committed to promoting a positive and supportive learning environment that encourages exploration, critical thinking, and creativity. Our goal is to empower each student to reach their full potential and prepare them to thrive in an ever-evolving world.

I encourage you to stay connected with your child's school throughout the year. Our schools have a dedicated team of administrators, teachers, and support staff who are here to partner with you in your child's education. Together, we can foster a strong sense of community and ensure that your child receives the support and guidance they need to succeed.

I look forward to meeting and engaging with you during our various school events and community gatherings throughout the year. Your involvement and support are invaluable in helping us create an enriching educational environment.

On behalf of the entire GUSD family, I extend my best wishes for a successful and rewarding school year. May this year be filled with growth, joy, and memorable learning experiences for our students. Thank you for your continued support, trust and partnership, and thank you for allowing GUSD to be a part of your lives.

Sincerely,

Zandra Jo Galván
