Greenmont Elementary

Staff, Due to a water leak at our school, our school will be closed tomorrow. Staff is NOT required to report. Maintenance and the City of Vienna will work together to fix the leak. Please do not notify parents as this will be handled by the superintendent. See you all Friday hopefully. Our evening custodian, Clark Rader, heard the leak and reported it.

DearGrizzlies, As we finished up 2023 today, we saw several hundred visitors come to our Christmas performance and parties. Our staff and students are very grateful to all that were able to come today to support our school community. As our staff finishes 2023 tomorrow, we will be having meetings, making lesson plans for the first week of 2024, entering grades, redoing bulletin boards, attending trainings and changing our school over from Christmas to winter. Our staff has certainly earned a rest over Christmas Break. On behalf of our school community, we wish you all a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!
