Frequently Asked Questions

When do we receive teacher assignments?

Teacher assignments are published on the GVS Parent Portal one week before School begins. An email will be sent out to all parents when this information has been posted online.

Please note that as per the Parent Handbook, The Administration and Faculty give careful thought and consideration to the sectioning of individual students. The School does not solicit parent requests for sectioning students, therefore special requests for teachers or placement should not be made.

Will my child be able to meet his/her teacher before school starts?

Many teachers will reach out to their class prior to the start of the school year, but the first meeting for current students will likely be on the first day of school.

For new students (and their families) there will be an orientation on Tuesday, September 3 for students in Kindergarten through 8th Grade and on Friday, September 6 for Early Childhood (Pre-Nursery-Pre-Kindergarten). This meeting allows our students and families to better acquaint themselves with their classroom, teachers and schedules.

What if my child has difficulty with the summer work?

Is campus open over the summer?

How can I update our family’s contact information?

Parents may update their contact information at any time via the online GVS Parent Portal.

Once logged in your name will appear in the upper right hand corner. Click on the corner arrow and select “Profile” from the list of options. From there you will see various edit boxes where you may update your information.

Please note that you also have the option to also update your child’s information by clicking on their name under "Relationships".

I am not receiving emails from the School. Who can I contact?

Who can I speak with regarding my child's food allergy?

Will Beginnings/Mommy & Me be offered next year?

Beginnings will resume on Monday, September 23, and be broken up into a fall, winter and spring term. This year the classes will be organized by age, with Monday & Wednesday for children aged 9-15 months, and Tuesdays & Thursdays for children 16-24 months.

If you are interested on learning more, please reach out to the Admissions & Enrollment Office, or review the Beginnings web page.

Is there a Student/Parent Directory I can access?

When does my child select an instrument? Where do I rent or buy it?

Students at Green Vale choose an instrument in one of the School's ensembles starting in 4th Grade. While students receive weekly music lessons, participants in Green Vale's instrumental music program are encouraged to deepen their facility with their musical instruments by taking private lessons. These lessons can be arranged privately or through the Director of the Music Department to be held at Green Vale.

New students in 5th-8th Grade will be contacted in June by Green Vale's Music Director, Eric Huckins. Instrument selection will be based on a child's previous experience and size of existing groups.

Instruments are traditionally rented through the Green Vale School on behalf of the students.

What fall sports are offered? When does my child make a selection?

Green Vale interscholastic team sports program begins in Grade 5. Students make their selections over the summer, with the option to make adjustments the first week of school.
The 5th & 6th Grades and 7th & 8th Grades are combined to form teams. Most teams have scheduled games with various local schools. When the number of players necessitates, we may form two equal teams to allow for greater playing time. Our philosophy at this age is to give the most positive experience and as equal play time as possible.

Fall Seasonal Offerings:

5th & 6th Grade Boys Soccer- An introduction to the skills and strategies behind soccer along with some interscholastic games against other independent school's 5/6 Grade teams

5th & 6th Grade Girls Soccer- An introduction to the skills and strategies behind soccer along with some interscholastic games against other independent school's 5/6 Grade teams

As well as live yoga classes and spin classes. Students in this unit will be introduced to our equipment and gain the basic knowledge behind the importance of daily, lifelong fitness.
