Back to School Information

Welcome to the 2024-25 academic school year! We at Greene are proud of our school, its programs, and the learning experiences we offer our students. This year at Greene will be incorporating the PAUSD Promise, a program that focuses on 5 areas: to serve and celebrate others, mental health and wellness, early literacy, equity and excellence, and healthy attendance. We look forward to working with you to support the promise.
