Greenwood Mission Statement
Report
Instruction is student-centric, acknowledging each child's learning style, abilities, and rate of development. Flexible classroom groupings allow children to progress in each subject at their own level of ability. We believe that children reach their highest potential through hands-on and investigative activities that are relevant to tehir lives.
