Principal's Message
Dear Greenwood Students, Parents, and Community Members,
What an honor it is to be entrusted with such a significant responsibility. I am excited to continue this journey with Greenwood and to serve in this capacity. Greenwood is a special place filled with a community that cares deeply for one another. The tradition of a tight-knit family culture at Greenwood is an experience that will continue to thrive.
Thank you, students, parents, and community members, for your ongoing trust and support of our staff here at Greenwood. It is vital and crucial that we build a strong working relationship, as we all share a common goal: to help our students become the best versions of themselves. Let us continue to come together and utilize all available resources to equip, empower, and guide our students in becoming productive citizens.
As the school leader, I am committed to striving toward student academic achievement and social-emotional growth. We are blessed at Greenwood to be surrounded by a staff that desires the best for our students. We are also blessed to have the support of our community. I look forward to continuing to serve and am eager to embark on the journey of each new school year with you.
Warm regards!
Hornet History
Greenwood Elementary is committed to “Guiding Every Child’s Success”. Located in the southern portion of Lee County, Greenwood School is an integral part of the Lemon Springs community. Opened on the site of the original K-12 Greenwood School in October of 1990, Greenwood Elementary currently has over 550 students. Our community connections are many; having established a partnership with Martin Marietta and a close working relationship with area churches, the Tramway Optimist Club, and Lemon Springs Ruritan Club. Several of our children are the fifth generation of their family to attend school at Greenwood, contributing to the strong family ties between our school and community.
