Noteworthy Achievements/Programs/Events

At Greenacres, the staff has continued to work hard to examine the effectiveness of what we do best-teach.  Throughout the 2000/2001 school year a group of staff members working on the School Improvement Team met bi-weekly to plan for more effective instruction throughout the entire school in Reading.  The SIT studied current research; best practices and conducts in-service activities for our entire staff.  Through the excellent thinking and critical examination of our work as a team, we believe that Reading instruction at all grades was positively affected.

  Working together, the School Improvement Team is leading the way toward greater quality in the work we all do for students.  Together we look ahead to brighter tomorrows
