A walk through the halls of Green Vineyard Academy when classes are in session is a remarkable experience. In every classroom, teachers present rigorous lessons and students rise to meet the challenges their teachers present. Green Vineyard Academy teachers hold students to high academic expectations, and are able to focus on effective instruction because consistent classroom management expectations are enforced by every teacher and followed by every student. Teachers deliver great lessons; students are engaged and on-task throughout the entire class period. Classes run fluidly with clear communication between students and teacher.
Academic success and opportunity are our greatest motivators. Teachers use school-wide systems, individual techniques, strong student-teacher relationships, and strong teacher-family relationships to promote and reinforce behavioral excellence. Students hold each other accountable and support each other in reaching ambitious goals. Students internalize the values taught at school and make good decisions (even when no one is watching). Parents are welcome at the school. Teachers know and feel that they are well supported by administration. Staff, teachers, students, and families work together to create a college-preparatory environment.
The goal is to create a culture of achievement in the school. Together, we place the highest value on student achievement and show students the path to success. We create a community where students would rather learn than distract or disrupt their learning or the learning of others.
