Friday, May 24, 2013 The School District and Educational Program Regular education and special education are offered to 1000 students in Pre-K through grade 12. The District, which merged in 2004, educates its students in two buildings: Canisteo-Greenwood Elementary/Middle School, and the Canisteo-Greenwood High School. A Board of Education of seven members oversees the operation of the District. The Canisteo-Greenwood Elementary/Middle School has approximately 600 students with a new science lab, art room, two music rooms (band and chorus), 10,000 square foot gymnasium and new athletic fields. The school has a swimming pool and students in grades 2-4 receive instruction in swimming. The library has over 10,000 books and is equipped with the latest computer technology. The Canisteo-Greenwood High School has a new TV media classroom, foreign language hookups, and a renovated 600-seat auditorium. Canisteo-Greenwood’s 350 eighth through twelfth grade students have many opportunities to experience academic excellence and success through the varied state accredited programs offered. As a result of our current capital project, all of our schools have wireless networking. In addition, 24 of our classrooms are equipped with Promethean Interactive boards. Our buildings have enhanced security with 360 degree internal and external camera coverage and either card or intercom access. New York State’s Commitment to higher standards will eventually challenge all students by having them take Regents in the subjects of Math, Science, English, and Social Studies. Canisteo-Greenwood offers a variety of courses to include Regents, Advance Placement and ACE (accelerated college education), as well as a myriad of remedial and BOCES programs. Collectively, the District provides quality programs for all students. Graduates can and do pursue varieties of vocational aspirations.
