Greenfield Elementary School kicked off the 2026-27 school year with a pep rally at the end of its first week of classes, bringing students and teachers together for an afternoon of fun, school spirit and character-building.
During the rally, students reviewed the school’s four core values: Be kind, show respect, give your best effort and be responsible.
The values were put into action as teachers challenged several fifth grade students to participate in the “Cup Grabbing Game.” The students competed in the lighthearted challenge as their classmates watched and cheered them on.
The event provided an opportunity for students to celebrate the start of a new school year while reinforcing the character and values expected throughout the year.
With plenty of smiles, laughter and school spirit, Greenfield Elementary’s first-week pep rally helped set the tone for the 2026-27 school year.
