To promote success in this area we devote a full academic period each day to development of composition skills. The tutorial, which concentrates on reading, spelling, and cursive, is complemented by a writing class where students learn to apply what they have learned. In this class, students learn grammar, punctuation, sentence and paragraph construction, creative and expository writing. Prior to graduation students receive practical instruction in how to develop and complete research and term papers. The Greenwood writing department is fully equipped with individual word processors for each class.
All students learn to compose, type, edit , and restructure their written work.
The school computer center is also connected to the Internet. A Process of Discovery Mathematics classes are small and are grouped according to each student's performance level. Concepts, computational skills, and first year algebra are taught. Students who have particular difficulty in mastering fundamentals receive special attention. The math program utilizes manipulatives, calculators, computers, and original techniques developed by our faculty members in order to aid students in acquiring skills.
