Our School Mission
Greenwood Elementary is a kindergarten through fifth grade public school located in the heart of Seattle's Greenwood neighborhood. Founded in 1909, the school has a history of quality, community-based education.  To learn about our school programs and philosophies, refer to the 2008 Annual Report. Greenwood is committed to providing quality education for students in a collaborative environment that involves the entire school community. We celebrate the diversity of our students and families. Students are encouraged and taught to exhibit outstanding citizenship. We offer art, drama, dance and instrumental music at various grade levels as well as a variety of before and after school clubs. Greenwood has received awards for the past two years for being a “Green" school that offers an environmental focus for children. Tutors provide reading and math support for students. Our staff is committed to ongoing professional development in the areas of literacy, math, and Positive Discipline. All teachers have been trained in Positive Discipline. Positive Discipline is an approach that prepares children for responsible citizenship. This approach encourages the use of solution- focused discipline to build a learning community that models mutual respect, cooperation, and responsibility in the classroom and school wide.

We offer full-day Kindergarten with a monthly fee, which will be $225 for the 2009-10 school year. The fee is waived for students receiving free lunch.
