Greenwood Friends School offers an educational environment where each child's unique gifts are nurtured and the Friends' principles of integrity, equality, community, simplicity, and peace are fostered.
Greenwood Friends School is an educational community in which students, teachers, and parents value learning, sharing, and living joyfully within a a challenging and supportive environment. Each child is welcomed and valued as a unique individual in this community.
Friends recognize "that of God" in each person, and this principle is central to our philosophy of educating hearts as well as minds.
Greenwood Friends School gives students the unique opportunity
for hands-on, project based learning everyday. Students often work
in mixed-age groups so that children can develop their gifts and
talents in a collaborative setting. Students learn to work
independently, as well, but always with respect for others in their
learning community. Greenwood has a long tradition of valuing music
and the arts which are all integrated into daily activities and
long-term projects.
With so much uncertainty in the world today and a pandemic further confounding our lives, it's reasonable for parents to want to protect their children whenever and wherever possible? But overprotecting or bubble-wrapping? Well, that's another matter.
You want your child to receive plenty of individual attention. That's one of the reasons most parents send their children to private school.
