Just scan the QR code to get your paws on a copy 📱 It's the purr-fect way to bring some roar-some storytelling into your home! 🏫 📖


As part of our Once Upon a Leo theme, students explore a different fairy tale each month. This month, we are reading The Three Little Pigs and using the story to highlight and discuss positive character traits. These lessons are being integrated into daily classwork, allowing students to connect the story’s themes to their everyday learning activities.





Many thanks to our local Food Lion for providing delicious snacks for the staff to enjoy! It's a great day to be a Lion!


GES Students are already hard at work learning and growing as Greendale Lions!
