This is the fourth year that students have done activities such as card making with the Senior Center and making reusable bags with Greening Greenfield, as well as many off-site activities, such as projects at the Greenfield Public Library, reading to students at Federal Street School and helping at the Moose Lodge.

Principal Karin Patenaude said it was a great day for the students to give back to the place they live in.
