Greenwood Friends School is very proud to announce it has been chosen to host a traveling poster show, the Lexicon of Sustainability. This show will feature 24 illustrated and creatively composed posters of sustainable practices from around the country. The posters are already a permanent feature in some of Google's and Stanford's buildings  in northern California. Take the opportunity to see the posters at Greenwood on Saturday morning, February 18th, from 10am to noon. Bring the whole family and  enjoy sharing great ideas and some light refreshments as well.

Brenda has informed the Greenwood community that she has accepted a new position as Head of School at Friends School of Wilmington in North Carolina beginning in the summer of 2012. This represents an exciting opportunity for her and we congratulate her on this appointment. Brenda has been an outstanding leader of Greenwood Friends for the past 4 years and has greatly strengthened our school; she will be missed.

The coming transition in leadership is important and the Board of Trustees is happy to announce that Cindy Schultz is wonderfully suited to step into the role of Interim Head of School in 2012-2013. Her familiarity with Greenwood Friends School from her fifteen years as parent, volunteer, and Board member, her strengths as an administrator, and her love for children will ensure that next year Greenwood’s growth and vitality will continue to flourish.

The trustees invite all members of the Greenwood community to a discussion on February 7 at 7 pm in the school library. Brenda, Cindy and many Trustees will be available to answer any questions about the process that is unfolding. This is also an opportunity to congratulate Brenda on her professional success and to welcome Cindy into the interim role.
