Greenwood is great school with great teachers. You can really tell that the teachers and staff love what they do. They're very involved with my child's education. My daughter loves it there and she loves that along with her regular courses she get to do other classes at various times of the week; i.e, music, art, etc. We are very pleased with Greenwood Elementary JEFFCOED School.

They are all truly dedicated to the children and to making the school the best it can be. I am so thankful to be zoned for this school!
