Safety Update
In accordance with our school’s crisis plan, we will be conducting an unannounced emergency drill, during the week of March 13th -17th, in preparation of imminent danger. We will be assisted by Henrico County Police to ensure safety protocol is being met.

We remain committed to making our school a safe learning environment, and drills like these are essential in making Greenwood as safe as possible.
