					<description><![CDATA[May 1, 2026

This afternoon around 2:00pm, we had a false alarm occur through our district safety program, Centegix, which activated our evacuation safety protocol at Greely High School. Our students and staff at GHS responded appropriately by following our safety procedures and protocols. There was an erroneous report posted by a member of the community on social media that there was an intruder at GHS. I wish to assure the district that this information is false and that there was no actual emergency at any of our schools.

As a result of this situation occurring near the end of the secondary school day, our bus schedule will be impacted slightly by about 10-15 minutes. Please plan on all buses for secondary and elementary students running behind schedule this afternoon. Thank you for your patience.
 - Jeff Porter,
Superintendent]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Every other Friday, Mr. Steven's and Ms. Soelberg's classes team up for Reading Buddies, and it’s one of the sweetest parts of the week! The 2nd graders read to their Kindergarten buddies for 15–20 minutes, and sometimes they add in a fun craft activity, too.

What makes it extra special?
✨ They keep the same buddies all year, building confidence, friendship, and strong connections.
✨ The 2nd graders get to shine as positive role models, while the K students grow their love for reading.
✨ It brings the school community together—everyone looks forward to it every two weeks!
These little moments make a big difference. 💕📖]]></description>
