NO SCHOOL - Happy Nevada Day!
Principal’s Message:
I am so excited to be a part of a new tradition at Greenspun, our first ever Trunk or Treat night, Oct. 23, from 5:30-7:30, in the school’s back parking lot.
For the kids, it’s about candy and costumes, but for me, it is a time to connect with families, community partners, staff, and students as we come together to enjoy a fun-filled evening and create special memories as part of the 24-25 school year.
Community involvement is important to the success of a school, so I encourage you to be a part of this event where students, and even adults, will be able to sport their best costumes, trick-or-treat from candy-filled trunks, enjoy dinner from local food trucks, and chat with our local police and firefighters. As a special attraction, The Las Vegas Thrill, our city’s first professional indoor volleyball team, will be there to greet you and add to our community spirit.
I look forward to seeing you there and thank you for your continued support to our Greenspun community.
