Mission & Vision

About Us

Good citizenship and academic excellence are priorities of the William S. Greene Elementary School. All students are individually supported and challenged to meet and exceed the Massachusetts standards. We are responsible for ensuring that our students become responsible adults, literate thinkers, and problem solvers with an enthusiasm for life-long learning.  We support our students’ learning by emphasizing a targeted, data driven and standard-based tiered response to intervention model. 

Collaboration and communication are the keys to successful education. We model opportunities to maximize parental and community participation that benefit a student’s overall growth. As a school family, we intend to provide a safe, supportive and intellectually stimulating learning environment that promotes a culture in which hard work and responsibility are valued while embedding a tradition of academic excellence in our school’s cultural ethos.  All adults and students are expected to exhibit responsible and respectful behavior.  We acknowledge participation and achievement through regular recognition programs.


The mission of the William S. Greene Elementary School is to provide a quality education in a safe and supportive learning environment. All students will attain the level of academic proficiency necessary to succeed in middle school, high school and beyond. We are committed to providing quality teaching and learning in a safe, healthy, and supportive environment that links students, parents, staff and social service providers in a caring community of life-long learners and capable problem solvers.

Our mission is anchored on our core values and driven by the belief that all students can learn and can achieve at high academic levels if they are provided with the support and instructional interventions that meet their academic needs and capitalize on their learning styles.  As a result, all students at the William S. Greene Elementary School are individually supported and challenged to meet and exceed the standards set by Massachusetts.
