The Greene School Home

401Gives is a statewide day of giving in Rhode Island, powered by United Way of Rhode Island, designed to unite the community and support local nonprofits through a virtual fundraising platform on April 1st. The Greene School is participating in this fundraiser for the first time this year. This year, our goal is to raise $15,000, and if we reach this target, we will receive a matching gift of $15,000—doubling the impact of every dollar donated! With your support, we can provide students with cutting-edge technology and hands-on learning experiences that will prepare them for success in today’s digital world. Help us bring 21st Century Learning to our community through a donation - every dollar will help! Just click on the above link or the QR code on the flyer to take to you our page on the 401Gives website. Thank you for your support! Your gift is tax-deductible and a receipt will be sent to you upon donation.

This month, the Council for Elementary and Secondary Education voted unanimously to uphold RIDE's recommendation for our full five-year renewal! Four of our students (Khadijah, Batoul, Michael and Adriel) made public commentary and were wonderfully poised and compelling! Board Members Amy Pratt and Hilmy Bakri were there alongside former Head of School Josh Laplante, Current Head of School Kerry Tuttlebee, Principal Alex Edelmann and ELA Teacher Sarah Kristiansen.

From October 6- 10, ten students from our Senior Class traveled to Block Island to participate in the Block Island Maritime Institute's (BIMI) educational programs. There was an application process in order to determine the 10 students who were able to participate in this experience. Students needed to answer questions such as: What leadership skills do you bring to this group and what Educational Learning Design Principles will you demonstrate during this learning experience? Students, along with two TGS teacher chaperones, stayed on Block Island and expenses were paid by BIMI's sponsors.
