Scarsdale Congregational Church Nursery School

Greenacres Elementary School is a K-5 public school in the Scarsdale Public Schools, on Huntington Avenue in Scarsdale. We group every class heterogeneously, balancing gender, age, personality and areas of strength or need, and we get to know each incoming kindergartner through a spring orientation that includes a screening visit with our psychologist and speech-language pathologist. Support is built into the building. Our school psychologist, Learning Resource Center teachers and speech-language pathologists work alongside classroom teachers, and students classified by the Committee on Special Education can receive speech and language, occupational therapy and physical therapy as related services. Students with milder needs can also receive building-level speech and language support. Our library includes a language library and charges no overdue fees. Our PTA runs ASC, an after-school enrichment program with clubs in art, dance, music, STEM and sports each fall, winter and spring. The PTA also brings cultural performances, a Multicultural Fair, Tinker Night, yoga, author visits and book club discussions to our students.
