Greenlee ECE, K-8 School, located in west Denver with easy access to downtown, hosts a variety of programs and services that draw students from around the city. These include English Language Acquisition classrooms for bilingual and English Language Learners, Headstart, and before and after school child care. We currently are transitioning from an elementary to an Early Childhood Education and Kindergarten through 8th grade school. Sixth grade was added in the 2005-2006 school year followed by 7th grade in 2006-2007 and 8th grade in the 2007-2008 school year.
Greenlee's focus is on reading, writing and math. Instruction is based on assessment of student work through one-on-one conferencing, small group instruction, and evaluation of student skills. We implement Reader's Workshop, Writer's Workshop and Studio for literacy which includes classroom libraries and great teacher resources. Everyday Math and Connected Math are programs that compliment each other as students transition from elementary to middle school.
We invite you to visit and observe a day in the life or our learners or volunteer as an active part of this learning process.
