2021-2022 SCHOOL YEAR PROSPECTIVE PARENTS

Welcome to Greenway Park Elementary School, where each child is recognized as an individual, and all children succeed. At Greenway Park Elementary School, we serve Pre-Kindergarten through Fifth Grade students. Academic achievement, social-emotional growth, and success for all are our primary goals. 

In 2018, Greenway Park was selected to add a Creative Arts and Sciences Magnet program that began during the 2018-2019 school year. Students in 3rd-5th grade who are enrolled in our Magnet choose both a major and minor for their Creative Arts focus. These focus areas include Band, Orchestra, Dance, General Music, Visual Arts, Theatre Arts and an array of Sciences. Greenway Park is proud to be part of the NC A+ Schools network, which is an elite group of schools across the US committed to growing students academically and socially/emotionally by integrating creative arts in the core curricula.
