Dear Greenfield Parents, Students and Community, It is my pleasure to welcome everyone back for another great year as a Greenfield wildcat!

I am honored to serve as the new principal at Greenfield Elementary. As your principal, it is important to me that everyone who steps through our doors; teachers, students and parents strive to build positive relationships that support academic and social growth.

We are all excited to have students back in our classrooms and hallways filling them with energy and enthusiasm for learning. Our mission statement indicates our commitment to high levels of learning for all students empowering them to meet and exceed the challenges of life. I embrace the statement and will work diligently to support a safe environment that promotes student character.

I am thankful to have the opportunity to bring all that I have experienced and learned with me to the Greenfield community. To ensure a smooth transition into this new school year I will be working throughout the summer both at home and in my office. Please stop by and say hello.

Mr. Don Cox Greenfield R-IV Elementary Principal dcox@

MISSION STATEMENT It is the mission of the Greenfield R-IV School District, in partnership with the community and students it serves, to educate each student to his or her achievable potential, empowering them to meet and exceed the challenges of life. It is the responsibility of every student, parent, and educator in the district to commit themselves to ensuring that students access the opportunities available. To support this belief, character education is an integral part of the curriculum district wide. Each student should be prepared to enter society as an independent, educated, productive citizen with the ability to think critically, act lawfully, behave responsibly, and adapt continually to change.
