About
Introducing Green Vale
We are a vast campus abuzz with engaged students interacting comfortably with passionate adults.
Admissions
Getting acquainted with Green Vale
This website is just one of many ways to learn about GVS. Our Admissions team is here to help your family get to know our school and our spirit.
PN - 8 Experience
Institutionally committed to childhood and early adolescence
The Pre-Nursery through 8th Grade age spectrum fosters an intimate community where growth is both slow and magically transformative.
Academics
In a joy-filled environment, children rise easily to intellectual challenge.
Success, failure and laughter are part of life and part of Green Vale. Our students feel both supported and inspired, allowing for high levels of instructional content and achievement.
Arts and Athletics
To sing, sculpt, and score a goal: all in a day’s work
At Green Vale, we are all creative artists, musicians and multi-sport athletes. Latent talent is often revealed, but the real goal is confidence, empathy and life-long appreciation gained through exposure and participation.
Life at GVS
Within the school day and beyond, this is an active community.
Students, parents, and teachers collaborate to fill the calendar with events and activities suited to the needs and interests of Green Vale and the larger community.
Support
Learn how the Green Vale community sticks together
Through parent and alumni outreach, volunteer efforts, fundraising, and news-sharing, Green Vale supports —and is supported by —the people it connects.
